==== An alternative interpretation ====
There are some alternative interpretations of how the Yupana works, e.g., [http://www.atlantisbolivia.org/decodingquipumaths.htm]. In this version, the base is 20, and rows with multiple dots are counted as 2s.
Yet another interpretation (by the author) is that the factor of each bead is based on the number of beads in its containing box.
Both of these alternative interpretations will be available under the "spanner" toolbar. And in a subsequent version, the learner will be able to explore their own interpretations of how the Yupana works.
