One By One - Math Game

tan(5pi/6) is wrong. I’m unsure what the answer has been programmed to be but whatever it is, it’s not accurate. Other than that, great game.

This is a wonderful app and great opportunity for practicing mental math. And this is why I care enough to make a bug report. Please fix calculus. Some of the answers require infinity, and this is not allowed in the answers. For example, I recently got the question: Given h(x) = 8/x find h’(0). The answer is -∞ as this is the limit from the left and right hand sides, but this is impossible to enter with the ‘Differential Departments’ keyboard. One possible stopgap solution would be to make the correct answers available if you pay for a skip (with in-game currency), this way we users can figure out what the game wants in such strange situations. Alternatively, you could take away the questions generating these issues, possibly by plugging all differentiation questions into the Wolfram engine to check the outcomes and then deleting the ones that don’t match. Of course, this won’t work if the questions are auto generated and not drawn from a bank —unless you run all possible questions (which would probably take a long time).
