Chinese Math and the Abacus

Mathematician Dan Hanson spoke at the ClevelandPeople.Com Food Adventure to The Pearl Asian Kitchen.  The Food Adventurers travel to authentic ethnic restaurants in the Cleveland area and, besides enjoying a special traditional menu, learn about the culture of the country.

Dan told some basics about Chinese mathematics and the Chinese abacus which is able to do hexadecimal calculation as opposed to abacuses from other countries.
