Note by Jeff Giff

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.

Nice, @Jeff Giff

- 1 month, 2 weeks ago

What about my Recurring Proof Notes? You think they are useful to your note, @Jeff Giff?

- 1 month, 2 weeks ago

@Jeff Giff- Try my A Pre-RMO question! series, Math also Fails! series.

- 1 month, 2 weeks ago

That's a definite one for @Jeff Giff to try - the Pre-RMO questions.

Also, RMO stands for...?

- 1 month, 2 weeks ago

By the way, try this for Math Also Fails - $e^{i\pi} =-1, (e^\pi)^i =-1,$ then $i=\log_{e^\pi} -1?!$

- 1 month, 1 week ago

No actually, definition of log clearly states that $log_ab$ is defined only when

• $a \gt 0 and a \neq 1$

• $b \gt 0$

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Well it is correct, and not surprising if you know the Taylor series of $\ln$ and this

- 1 month, 1 week ago

If you want a big and detailed explanation you can ask for that (can even write a note!)

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Oops.. that’s logarithm for negative numbers :/

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Good idea! I’ll add them :)

- 1 month, 2 weeks ago

@Jeff Giff, Thanks for the mention for my $\LaTeX{}$ Guide but, it is a work in progress and I can suggest you better ones - Daniel Liu's Guide and Hamza Anushath's Guide.

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Ok! Thanks!

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Thanks for the mention of Mathathon 2020 too!

- 1 month, 1 week ago

- 1 month, 1 week ago

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Yeah, it has been two weeks @Percy Jackson @Jeff Giff

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Correction - 2 weeks and 3 days LOL

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Mathathon started, start posting solutions @Hamza Anushath

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Yeah, if I post solutions for past questions, will I still get points @Percy Jackson

Deduct five points from the total due to late submission if you'd like as well

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Cuz I didn't see the Mathathon problems till just now @Percy Jackson...

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

No deduction for past questions go post the solutions!

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Thnx @Percy Jackson!

- 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Try my When two lines meet series, it is a series of hard questions for learning to solve questions using graph. Is this useful for your note?

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff Add this sreies also, of @Aryan Sanghi

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Thanks a lot @Zakir Husain

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Thanks to @Jeff Giff for adding this in the note

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Yes, @Jeff Gift great initiative this is like Percky Jackson.

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff Also try to add polyfon series by @Aryan Sanghi

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Yes,thanku. I'll try to make the polyfun series more vast by adding more problems to it.

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff- Kindly mention this note instead of my feed for Pre-RMO question series.

- 1 month, 1 week ago

👌 OK!

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff, could you $\color{#333333}\text{add my note}$ too as a $\LaTeX$ guide, it has many new facts and features which may only have been mentioned by me

- 1 month, 1 week ago

Click the $\text{add my note}$ to access my note @Jeff Giff

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff, if you need anything from me, check out my profile and choose the series (i.e. if you choose one problem, you have to have the rest of the problems with that title.)

- 1 month, 1 week ago

@Jeff Giff - Kindly add this in RedMaths ''Late Events''

- 1 month ago

@Jeff Giff Thanks!

- 1 month ago

Check this out, @Páll Márton :)

Wowie!!!!!! RadMaths has become even better! Good work @Jeff Giff! You'll have to organize it a bit though, like removing the Mathathon as it is over, adding more space between 2 different series, etc.

- 3 weeks ago

@Jeff Giff it is Vinayak Srivastavsa not Yinayak @Vinayak Srivastava ?

- 2 weeks, 6 days ago

Yes @Jeff Giff!

- 2 weeks, 6 days ago

Uh oh. Typo ^@^

- 2 weeks, 6 days ago

@Jeff Giff, check out this:

- 2 weeks, 6 days ago

@Jeff Giff - See my Biology Problem Series note on my profile :)

- 1 week, 1 day ago

@Jeff Giff - You can use buttons in RadMaths to make it more rad. See my note Buttons to learn button formatting :)

- 4 days, 8 hours ago

I used it in anther note :) I don’t think it is necessary to add buttons here :)
