SigniFigures is capable of generating thousands of numbers for drills to ensure that the student masters what he has learnt.
The student may also enter his own numbers and let SigniFigures check whether his answers are correct. This feature can help the student do his homework.

SigniFigures automatically uses the decimal separator (decimal symbol) and the thousands separator (digit grouping symbol) set in the system. The thousands separator and format can also be changed without affecting those set in the system.

For significant figures, it allows students to key in the answers either in ordinary form or in standard form (scientific notation), that is, A x 10n, where the value of A is from 1 to below 10 and n is any integer.
The teacher may specify that students give their answers in only one of the forms available.

For Standard Form, all answers must be in Standard Form, except for conversion to ordinary form.
