Ezmonic

After learning of the Major System mnemonic and using it to memorize things like my credit cards and bank accounts, I had the idea to optimize it with software. That was the inception of Ezmonic.

The Major System mnemonic involves coming up with words that have sounds that map to numbers. If you want to remember a long number, like 3.141592653, then you break it into smaller numbers that you can map to words.

For example, 3 maps to the "M" sound and 1 maps to the "T" sound. So 31 can be remembered with the word "MEAT". You can then string several words together into a story that becomes easier to remember than the numbers.

A good mnemonic would use the fewest number of words. But coming up with a word that uses a large quantity of numbers is difficult.

Try to think of a word for the number 314159 - that maps to the sounds "M", "D", "R", "T", "L", "P".

That's a trick task. There's actually no single word in the English language that has those sounds.

So what is the next longest word you can make?

Maybe something like "Motor Tulip"?

This task of breaking a number into possible mnemonics... that is what Ezmonic automates.

This was my first experience navigating the Apple/Google mobile app stores and the miscellaneous stuff involved took about a full-time week. Tasks included writing descriptions and marketing copy, creating screenshots, obtaining privacy policies, etc...
