What is short division? I only remember being taught long division and having a calculator. Is there another method?
After looking at the English Wikipedia I found that
a) what I learned in school is long division
b) the notation with the dividend and the divisor separated by a parenthesis and the result on top of a horizontal bar is totally alien to me
c) I've never seen short division before
d) the German Wikipedia doesn't even have an article about short division
Edit: although if someone else can explain it better I'd really like to know.
From what I have searched,(quickly mind you), it seems to be a mind set.
