One way to differentiate between them is, the "c" in stalactites is for "ceiling" (that is, hanging from the top), and the "g" in stalagmite is for "ground" (that is, sprouting from the ground). This is the method taught to me by my primary school teacher many, many years ago. Kind regards and keep up your good work in propagating Vedic Maths. I have also put together some tools and techniques for teaching Vedic Maths but currently involved in some programming work in a related Vedic science, Panchanga computations. Kevin,
