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.

Please read the Rules.

Oh, so sorry. I saw others doing it and I thought it would be nice. Fixed.

Others might have thought of average of other entries , but I know of @Cody Johnson , it's something like TROLL .

Hey, I also chose 41 in the set select a number. What a coincedence!!

NOTE : This is an experimental round. If this round doesn't go well, the next 19 rounds might be cancelled.

It's a lot better if you can't see the submissions of anyone else...

Daniel Liu - 6 years, 9 months ago

Yes, unfortunately I don't know how to do that

@Zi Song Yeoh – I can create a code on command prompt in which can do this.

Looks like we need to define numbers again, because $\color{#3D99F6}{\textbf{The CJ}}$ has brought $41$ in the range $[20,30]$ , so we actually do need to define numbers again !
