What's new: quote sets and formula sets

Memoriee began with a single job: take a passage and help you say it back word for word. That part still works exactly as it did. This update is about what else you can now put in.

Two new kinds of material sit alongside plain texts. When you add something to your library you will see three options instead of one: a text, a quote set, or a formula set. Pick whichever matches what you are learning, and Memoriee gives you the practice methods built for it.

Quote sets

A quote set is a deck of short quotes from one source, each kept together with its attribution: who said it, the scene or chapter, and the page. This is for English and the humanities, where the quote on its own is only half the job. You need the line, and you need to be able to say where it comes from.

So the practice runs both directions. Some methods hide the quote and give you the attribution as the cue. Others show the quote and ask who said it and where it is from. You can flip through the whole deck to get familiar, work up to recalling a full quote and its source from a single hint, and drill the classic exam traps: spotting a word that has been changed, or catching a line pinned on the wrong character. Each quote also rides its own spaced schedule, so the ones you keep fumbling come back sooner.

Build the quote bank once, practise it both ways, and you walk into the essay with the quotes and the references already locked in.

Formula sets

A formula set is a deck of formulas with a glossary that says what each symbol stands for. This one is for maths and science, and it is built around a plain fact: memorising the letters of a formula is the easy part and the least useful. Knowing F = ma is worth little if you cannot rearrange it for a, say what each symbol means, or tell when it actually applies.

So the methods push past rote copying. You rearrange a formula for a named variable, substitute values and solve, assemble one from its pieces, spot a version that has been deliberately broken, or read a short scenario and choose the formula it calls for. The formulas are typeset properly rather than left as plain text, and the symbol glossary travels with the set, so the meaning never drifts away from the notation.

How to use them

Adding either one works the same way as adding a text. Open add to library, choose a quote set or a formula set, and fill in the entries. Each set then opens its own picker showing the methods that suit it, and you practise from there.

Everything else is unchanged. It is still free, there is still no account to make, and all of your work still stays in your browser.

If you have a quote bank for an English text or a sheet of formulas for a science exam, add it to Memoriee and have a go.
