Yup... But Roman Reigns will surely be the champion at Wrestlemania?? Are you too excited about wrestlemania?

10 exams?? ....... Let's see if match will be a good one and if India gets to chase something about 170-180 then it would be a delight to watch team India chase :-)!!
The given expression can be written as:
∏ i = 2 2 0 1 4 1 − i 2 1 = ∏ i = 2 2 0 1 4 i 2 i 2 − 1 = ∏ i = 2 2 0 1 4 i × i ( i − 1 ) ( i + 1 )
⇒ ∏ i = 2 2 0 1 4 i ∏ i = 2 2 0 1 4 i ∏ i = 3 2 0 1 5 i ∏ i = 1 2 0 1 3 i = 2 × 2 0 1 4 2 0 1 5 × 1 = 4 0 2 8 2 0 1 5
Hence x + y = 2 0 1 5 + 4 0 2 8 = 6 0 4 3 . Sum of digits of 6 0 4 3 = 1 3

Use 1 − x 2 1 = ( 1 − x 1 ) ( 1 + x 1 ) .
Let P = x = 2 ∏ m ( 1 − x 2 1 ) P = ( 2 1 ⋅ 2 3 ) ( 3 2 ⋅ 3 4 ) ( 4 3 ⋅ 4 5 ) ⋯ ( m m − 1 ⋅ m m + 1 ) = 2 m m + 1
When m = 2 0 1 4 , P = 4 0 2 8 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 5 + 4 0 2 8 = 6 0 4 3 ∴ 6 + 4 + 0 + 3 = 1 3
