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.

Shiva -- thanks for the suggestion. This is something that the staff at Brilliant really wants, so there is a good chance it will happen sometime soon.

One thing that'd be really neat is if solution submitters could have their scratch pad drawings included in their solutions. A lot of solutions would be much quicker and easier to understand with a diagram or two!

Do you not have paper?

Save the trees! :)

Not always. Besides, in some situations (like riding in a car), it's cumbersome and awkward to do problems on paper anyway.

Nice will save time having to get paper everywhere.
