Great River, NY | Sig Figs
Someone teach me sig figs please. I need to know them really well by the end of next week. I would greatly appreciate some insight that does not link to the google search for "sig figs" |

| What is this evil thou speaketh of? Sig figs are henceforth banished from the realm of human knowledge!
Seriously, they suck. It's one of those "I get it" or "I can't seem to get it" situations. Some people find them brain dead easy, some find them harder than a Chinese finger puzzle.

Great River, NY | To me it seems like the rules change every time I try to figure it out. Seems like an utterly stupid concept to me. Someone please prove me wrong. I beg of you. |

1 edit | The wikipedia article is straight forward. If you cannot learn it from that you will probably need a tutor in person, someone typing it will not be able to explain it any better.
I assume your in high school, you might want to ask your teacher if he or she could tutor during your study period.
If you want further help here, maybe you should read the wikipedia article and post what you do not understand.
