Drummer_Dave Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I read that learning to use an abacus can help with one's own mental arithmetic... anyone experienced this? And any suggestions of a good abacus (type) to buy? Thanks in advance.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endy0816 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I would probably agree that it gets you to think about numbers more. I have a suanpan(2 top beads, 5 bottom beads), but think the soroban(1:4) would be easier to work with. More videos available and fewer extraneous beads to deal with. There are ones with a bar to reset the top beads all at once, which would be nice to have, but wouldn't be a dealbreaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
