curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog Wait, she wouldn't get ANY time to do calculations on her OWL exam!?
Nettie's face fell a little as she started to mentally panic over this. Especially since she knew literally nothing about mechanical calculators. Muggles all used their fancy phones these days to calculate things, right? It had literally never occurred to her that there had been something pre-dating that. It made sense though, because it wasn't like people just started to do math as soon as phones came around.
She raised her hand, taking a wild shot in the dark - but it was a logical one. "They came about because people didn't have time to do all those calculations by hand, like you said. They needed something faster, but just as accurate, so they could do more calculations in half the time," she said. Was she blindly guessing on this one? Absolutely, but it made sense right?
