+By default,
+.Nm
+asks questions on addition of numbers from 0 to 10, and corresponding
+subtraction. By supplying one or more of the characters
+.Ar +\-x/ ,
+you can ask for problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
+division, respectively. If you give one of these characters more than
+once, that kind of problem will be asked correspondingly more often.
+.It Fl r
+If a
+.Ar range
+is supplied,
+.Nm
+selects the numbers in its problems in the following way. For addition
+and multiplication, the numbers to be added or multiplied are from 1 to
+.Ar range.
+For subtraction and division, both the required result and the number
+to divide by or subtract will be from 1 to
+.Ar range.
+The default
+.I range
+is 10.
