Hello. I'm from the Caribbean and doing Physics for CAPE (Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination) (Similar to the British A-level system).
One thing I noticed in certain threads was that people used 'significant digits' as opposed to 'significant figures' where I come from. So, I hope that my vocabulary wouldn't be a problem :)
Also, I've never been part of a forum, so this is a new experience for me.
