search tools

This is so lovely to have search tool on Brilliant now. It eases so much.

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.

Is it a new feature? I though it was already there since I never gave too much attention for anything here but the problems and solutions. Thanks anyway. It's really helpful. :)

Through the search function I was able to find a couple of "unreleased" problems from Brilliant!

"Unreleased"? Care to explain?

Mursalin Habib - 7 years, 4 months ago

By unreleased I think he means historical problems from before the switch to the new format. You can recognize those as the ones that are shared by the "Best of" accounts with no human author.
