Easy Math Editor

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.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

I believe you won't mind if I add a bit about Mursalin. Here

$\bullet$ $\textit{Mursalin:}$ The current $\textbf{all-rounder}$ at Brilliant.

On the whole a good recognition of the superb attributes of these superb people.

Nishant Sharma - 7 years ago

It's an absolute honor that you think of me that way! I'd like to add that there are a large portion of users that are better than me at both math and physics. I simply share things that I love, learn from others, help others learn and join interesting conversations on this wonderful site. If that makes me an 'all-rounder', I'm glad to be one :)

Mursalin Habib - 7 years ago

Well you have an extra edge over them in that you share a lot of widely ranging topics here. Your healthy criticism does bring more out of a person. I wish I could meet such a blessed person in reality(we might do one day as we are not much far from each other). All-round does not imply only subject skills. @Calvin Lin what is your take ?

Wow thanks im on here :D

Thank you. You won't be long, I'm sure.

@Sharky Kesa – @Sharky Kesa, can you help me? I don't know much about AoPS & its contents. Can you show me the way?

@Ameya Salankar – AoPS is basically a math forum website. It is jam-packed with tons of info, but I mainly only play FTW! on it. FTW! Is this sort of countdown maths contest. You should make an AoPS account on it. :D
