About

NumFun is a standalone shareware math drill application for Classic Mac OS by Joe Hammons, designed to teach arithmetic facts to young learners through a mix of timed drills, visual aids, and small logic challenges. The four core operations - addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division - each get their own practice mode.Visual arithmeticRather than presenting bare equations, NumFun uses on-screen objects to anchor the four operations, helping younger students connect abstract numerals to concrete counts of items they can see and tally.Number puzzleBeyond the operation drills, the program ships a logic-driven number puzzle that asks the learner to reason about constraints rather than simply recall a memorized fact.Guess the secret numberA separate mental-math mode invites the player to discover the computer's hidden number through a sequence of guesses and feedback, training estimation and bracketing skills.DistributionNumFun is shareware: the author distributes the standalone application freely while expecting registered users to pay for continued use. The submission to Info-Mac came directly from Joe Hammons.
