==== 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. | |||
