reading

Reading is the process of taking in the sense or meaning of letters, symbols, etc., especially by sight or touch.For educators and researchers, reading is a multifaceted process involving such areas as word recognition, orthography (spelling), alphabetics, phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, and motivation.Other types of reading and writing, such as pictograms (e.g., a hazard symbol and an emoji), are not based on speech-based writing systems. The common link is the interpretation of symbols to extract the meaning from the visual notations or tactile signals (as in the case of Braille).

    Combustion Reading Question???

    Hi guys. If a section of flue was disconnected in a loft space then surely on doing a combustion test the readings would go sky high? That is my understanding in the past. Would it be possible for the readings to be stable and pass the test? Your thoughts would be most appreciated.
