# Getting started with Brilliant

Dear new brilliant member brilliant has know some problems. Check all of them here. Why? Because Brilliant staff is removing things from Brilliant because those things have been using less and less during the years.

Brilliant is made in this world for people from all over the world to learn number theory, quantitative finance, algebra, logic, geometry, calculus, classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, basic mathematics, discrete mathematics, computer science and chemistry. To get to them click Practice(up, middle). You will first see the courses from the current topic. When you scroll down you will see different parts of the current topic. If you click one of them you will see problems by the Brilliant staff and by odder users. The problems by the odder users are separated in 1-2 or 1-3 level. Scroll down more you will see many wikis for different things of the current topic.

Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4 and Level 5 means different levels of hardness.
