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.

Congrats! Also... I noticed your age changed recently and discovered you had a birthday. Happy birthday! I too was born on May 5th . Here is a complete list of the other less important things than us that have occurred on the 5th of may

THis is Cinco De Mayo in Mexico, and Children's day in Korea.

David Lee - 7 years, 1 month ago

Ya. :D

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

That's awesome! Naturally, as soon as I turn 13 (which legally allows me to be on Brilliant... Oops) @Bradan Litzinger changes the required age to 14. That really is unfortunate.

@Peter Taylor

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

Tan Li Xuan - 7 years, 1 month ago

Ahmad Naufal Hakim - 7 years, 1 month ago

Thanks! :D

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

Oh @Calvin Lin have you seen my set Difficult problems which need ratings!? Some of those problems have existed for weeks and haven't gotten ratings. What's up with that?

Finn Hulse - 7 years ago

@Calvin Lin @Peter Taylor @Silas Hundt @Suyeon Khim @Daniel Liu @Daniel Chiu @Trevor B. @Sharky Kesa @Nabhanshul Satra Thank you guys all so much! :D

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

No problem and congratulations!!! 1000 followers is a milestone. I am almost there. I see you put a smiley face next to me and David. Because we are too young for Brilliant?:D

Sharky Kesa - 7 years, 1 month ago

aah 1000 followers.....i also wanted that many

Anubhav Singh - 7 years, 1 month ago

You're getting there! :D

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

I am very far

Anubhav Singh - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Anubhav Singh – I am even further... Sigh. Just 22 people... I guess it's bcos I never spend enough time on Brilliant to post problems and other things, just barely enough time to keep up my (small-ish) streak and solve about 1 to 2 problems. So it's natural that people don't notice me... :(

Yuxuan Seah - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Yuxuan Seah – But at least I manage to reshare any good stuff I see

Yuxuan Seah - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Yuxuan Seah – I've been following you since like, forever! :D

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Finn Hulse – Thanks... Oh, and someone just un-followed me, making 21. Haha

Yuxuan Seah - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Yuxuan Seah – I hate when people do that. D:

Finn Hulse - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Yuxuan Seah – But at least my exams are almost done now, and pretty soon I should get my freedom back and get to spend the whole day on Brilliant YAY :D

Yuxuan Seah - 7 years, 1 month ago

@Yuxuan Seah – I came up with the ideas for my newest problems during an exam ( I finished it and I didn't have anything to do ) :)
