# The most amazing brute force I've ever seen.

Hello, fellow Brilliantians!

I recently took the AMC 10A. I went onto AOPS to check my solutions, and also to take a look at the AMC 12A 2014 questions. For Problem 15 in AMC 12A 2014, I saw the most amazing brute force solution EVER. Here's the link:

It's Solution 2.
