This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

• Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
• Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
• Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.

@Hamza Anushath - The size one is my fav - "Aah! I'm shrinking!" LOL XD

I've been updating my guide too, I'm including everything about Latex so it'll take time, but I'm making progress, 2 chapters done, check it out - My Latex Guide

Hahaha, I know @Percy Jackson

I did that for two reasons:

• For humor

• To see the differences in the sizes easily and much more efficiently

Plus, this isn't a $\LaTeX$ guide

This is a list of extra $\LaTeX$ methods that I have never seen in any other thread

This is brand new stuff, and it is original

Good luck with your $\LaTeX$ @Percy Jackson

You should include color, its useful for solutions, \ (\color{colorname}yourText)

- 3 months, 3 weeks ago

I knew that, but thanks for mentioning

Maybe you can learn something new now after my edit @Percy Jackson...

- 3 months, 3 weeks ago

NIce, now its awesome!

- 3 months, 3 weeks ago

Headings too would be useful, just a suggestion, I'm suggesting these things as they don't come in the formatting guide in BRILLIANT, so beginners would find this helpful.(Its me Anna)

- 3 months, 3 weeks ago

Thanks for the idea Anna @Percy Jackson!

- 3 months, 3 weeks ago

@Percy Jackson, @Yajat Shamji, better you both see my post again...

All good stuff related to $\LaTeX$

Yeah. The I heard about buttons already, but I thought if >! doesn't work, then it won't also

[[show-hide-button|some button text]] [[start-hidden]] some description text [[end-hidden]] lol
