Written solution didn't get save :(

Just now I wrote an elaborate solution to one of the problems and was just checking for latex errors. I previewed it twice and third time I went to edit it and my mistake clicked outside the screen. And see what.. solution is gone! There is absolutely nothing there! Can we do something so that such frustration could be avoided in future?

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.

Hi Snehal, yes this is quite frustrating and we have it on our roadmap to auto-save solution drafts before the end of the year.
