Dyscalculia. It’s like dyslexia, but for math. It happens.
But definitely embarrassing when it happens on the air!
Dyscalculia symptoms include: Poor understanding of the signs +, -, and x, or may confuse these mathematical symbols. Difficulty with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division or may find it difficult to understand the words “plus,” “add,” “add-together.”. Difficulty with times tables. Poor mental arithmetic skills.
Even Count Dyscalculia has better math skills than the MSM.
