*** WMATH 1.1 ***
Wind-O-Math
WMATH 1.1 is a math-tutor designed for Windows. You must
have Windows 3.0 or later to use the program, and naturally
whatever hardware requirements Windows has will be needed
to use this program.
You must also have the file VBRUN100.DLL (distributed with
this program) either in your PATH statement or in the same
directory as this program.
INSTALLATION:
There is a new installation program we wrote included.
To install, put your program disk in your disk drive
(or better yet, a backup copy of it), change to that
drive by typing the drive letter, a colon, and then
Enter (such as A:[Enter]). Then to start the install
program type INSTY. The installation program will prompt
you for the destination drive and directory where you
wish to install the program files. The default is C:\
WINDOWS. WMATH needs to be with your WINDOWS program
as well as it's files. If C:\WINDOWS is where your
Windows program is, you can just press Enter, otherwise
enter the correct information here.
This file will not be installed. The installation
program will tell you when it is done. Then you need to
start Windows and go to the Program Manager and select
New from the menu. Add the file WMATH.EXE, and the other
info as prompted and you should find a new ICON on your
screen, ready to go.
NOTE: Optionally, you can start Windows first, before
installing. Select RUN from the Program Manager menu, and
type in A:\INSTY when it asks you what you want to run,
(or B:\INSTY...whatever your disk drive designation).
DESCRIPTION:
This program will generate either Addition, Subtraction,
Multiplication or whole Division problems at random. The
default maximum number is 50, and the default problem is
addition, but either of these may be changed from the pull-
down menu. It will also keep track of your correct and
incorrect answers and you may see them or reset them at
any time. If you give an incorrect answer, the icon will
frown, and the correct answer will be given. A correct
answer will get a big smile from the icon.
*New option. . .
Also, at COMPLETION of your session, you may select SCORES
from the pulldown menu, and then select Report Card from the
pulldown on the scores form, (have your printer ready) and
a "Report-Card" will be printed as the program ends.
(Note that this will automatically end the program.)

REGISTRATION:
Registration is $5.00. If $2.50 is added for shipping/handling
an upgraded version will be sent which has many more options
and other types of problems (percent to decimal, Square root,
etc.), a pop-up calculator for help and better graphics as well
as more detailed report-card printing, etc. You may print an
invoice for registration either by typing PRINV at DOS while
in the directory where INVOICE.DOC and PRINV.BAT are contained
OR through the menu in the program which uses the same method.
If you have no printer, send the fee to:
