Hi Lynnsky!I have used the abacus for telephone numbers too. I never thought about using it for an ISBN. I'll remember that tidbit.

It is a mathematics tool, yes. It also works very well for taking down phone numbers or any other numerical data a person needs to reference. It works well for that kind of thing. I've even used it to make note of an ISBN number. Blessings.
