Dyscalculia

Disorder affecting learning arithmetic

Dyscalculia is a learning disorder, resulting in difficulty learning or comprehending arithmetic, such as difficulty in understanding numbers, numeracy, learning how to manipulate numbers, performing mathematical calculations, and learning facts in mathematics. In the United Kingdom it is classified as a specific learning difficulty. It is sometimes colloquially referred to as "math dyslexia." Dyscalculia is associated with dysfunction in the region around the intraparietal sulcus, and potentially also the frontal lobe.
