Exploration Guidelines
Although our explorations are made to be as easy to understand and use
as possible, some problems still arise. There are several errors more common
than any other:
* Zeros preceding decimals: enter ".32", not "0.32"
* Fractions: enter ".5", not "1/2"
* The pi symbol, ¶, is incorrectly displayed in some browsers. So, if you see this symbol: "¶", know that it is pi (about 3.14)
* The degree symbol, º, is incorrectly displayed in some browsers. So, if you see this symbol: "º", know that it is the "degree" symbol
* The "plus-or-minus" symbol, ±, is incorrectly displayed in some browsers. So, if you see this symbol: "±", know that it is the "plus-or-minus" symbol
Also, since the answer boxes are implemented using JavaScript, Netscape
Navigator/Communicator should work fine, as well as Microsoft Internet
Explorer. Other browsers, however, may or may not have problems, depending
on their support of JavaScript. If you are using a browser that does not
support JavaScript, write down your answers on paper and check them with
the answer key.
