3 ≡ 5 (mod 2) can be expressed as 3 = 5 + k2 so k = (3-5)/2 therefore k = -1

Yeah I think we both understand what it's trying to explain now

I answered a and b

rugged latch
#

What do u have so far for part c

wraith hinge
zenith summit
#

I am not sure about which line equations to choose

rugged latch
#

What did u get for b

zenith summit
#

y=-1/3x+9

rugged latch
#

Yes

#

Now set that equal to the original equation

zenith summit
#

y=3x+4

#

that one right?

rugged latch
#

Mhm

zenith summit
#

okay thanks

#

i have to use (6,7) coordinates

#

and substitute it into the equation

rugged latch
#

No

#

Did u set them equal and solve for x?

zenith summit
#

isn't the value of x = 6

rugged latch
#

Well, that’s a point on only one of the lines

#

We’re trying to find the point where both of the lines meet

zenith summit
#

ohh

#

the mid point

#

thanks

rugged latch
#

Hm

zenith summit
#

wait

#

is the midpoint (1.5, 8.5)

rugged latch
#

The “intersection point” is (1.5,8.5) yes

zenith summit
#

oh no

#

i mixed the two up

rugged latch
#

Midpoint is when we want to find the point in the middle of 2 points

zenith summit
#

yes

rugged latch
#

Intersection point is when we want to find where 2 lines meet

zenith summit
#

so from which point of the line am i trying to solve

rugged latch
#

Wdym

mint peak
trim joltBOT
mint peak
#

can someone help me with time complexity of this algorithm? outer loop is log_2(n), but i'm struggling with the inner loop

#

i need to express time complexity of entire program in terms of N

dark quest
#

First of all, you should have $$T = \sum_{i = 1}^{\log n} \text{inner}(i)$$

solid kilnBOT
#

jimmy1234

dark quest
#

Since $$j * j < i$$, you will have $$j < \sqrt{i}$$, hence it should be obvious that $$\text{inner}(i) = i^{\frac{1}{2}}$$.

solid kilnBOT
#

jimmy1234

dark quest
#

Do you know how to proceed from this?

trim joltBOT
#

@mint peak Has your question been resolved?

mint peak
#

so, is it log(n) * sqrt(i)?

dark quest
#

Another Hint for you 🙂

mint peak
#

Don't get it

#

summation from 1 to log_2(n) 2^n

mint peak
mint peak
#

ahh, dont get it

trim joltBOT
#

@mint peak Has your question been resolved?

trim joltBOT
#

@mint peak Has your question been resolved?

dense breach
#

ok so

#

what's time complexity of the inner loop based on i

trim joltBOT
#

@mint peak Has your question been resolved?

mint peak
#

I was told that I can't multiply time complexity when the loops are dependent

wraith hinge
#

Maybe as a warm-up replace i in the fourth line with n: j * j < n

dense breach
#

^

dense breach
#

but if we pretend like the first loop is by itself how long does it take based on i

dense breach
#

yeah

#

so every time it's called it takes sqrt(i) time

#

so the approach that you can't do

#

you can't just say it's called log(n) times so the overall time complexity is log(n)*sqrt(i)

#

notice that time complexity depends on i when it should only depend on n as well

#

so what you should do

#

look at the number of times it tends to be called and the values it's called with

wraith hinge
#

Maybe think about the value of i in the last step of the outer loop.

mint peak
#

This is my observation, but I don't know how to express it mathematically

dense breach
#

so this is for some n value between 256 and 511, right

dense breach
#

257 to 512 then

dense breach
#

our runtimes are like

#

0,1,1,2,3,5,7,11,15

#

well we already know it's sqrt(i)

#

so if i assumes every power of 2 between 1 and n

dense breach
#

just finding the order of growth

#

nothing precise

#

O(n) stuff

mint peak
#

hmm, but how

#

upper bound maybe can be sqrt(n) but don't know if there can be something better

dense breach
#

well we need to understand the sequence

#

does it make sense if i write it as around like sqrt(1), sqrt(2), sqrt(4), sqrt(8), ..., sqrt(2^n)

proven chasm
#

I was trying to find all a and b integer solutions such that a^2+b^2=25. a^2+b^2 can be factored into (a+bi)(a-bi). If you write that into polar you get sqrt(a^2+b^2)e^iarg(b/a)+sqrt(a^2+b^2)e^iarg(-b/a). You can simplify this to get (a^2+b^2)e^i(arg(b/a)+arg(-b/a) and this equals 25.If you divide both sides by (a^2+b^2) then you get c/(a^2+b^2) which is one meaning e^i(arg(b/a)+arg(-b/a) is one and that means (arg(b/a)+arg(-b/a) this is equal to 0. if you solve for a and b you get a can be any number and b is 0. But there are other solutions like 3 for a and 4 for b.

trim lichen
#

a^2+b^2 can be factored into (a+b)(a-b)
no

#

you're thinking of a^2 - b^2

proven chasm
#

my bad

proven chasm
#

(a+bi)(a-bi)

trim lichen
#

and what's "arg(b/a)" exactly?

proven chasm
#

its

#

every number can be

#

written as

#

ze^itheta

#

z is sqrt(a^2+b^2)

#

theta is just

#

arg(b/a)

#

arg is ussually inverse tangent

#

but that sometimes does not work

#

so I used arg

lament jewel
#

isit just me or are these not rly int solns anymore when u move into C

proven chasm
#

what do you mean

lament jewel
#

isnt int solns just 0,5 and 3,4

proven chasm
#

that is true

#

but I am trying to generlize

#

using complex numbers

trim lichen
#

arctan(b/a) + arctan(-b/a) = 0 for all values of a and b (where defined), not only when b=0.

proven chasm
lament jewel
#

ok yea ig u cld, mb

trim lichen
#

so what you arrived at is exactly nothing!

lament jewel
trim lichen
#

show exactly what you input into WA

proven chasm
trim lichen
#

would think WA does not understand your unorthodox notation

proven chasm
#

It does

#

in the corner

#

It says

#

arg is

#

the complex argument

trim lichen
#

yeah but you're passing a real number to it as input

proven chasm
#

and then you can check the defenition

trim lichen
#

arg(a+bi) != arg(b/a)...

proven chasm
#

a and b are real numbers

#

oh

#

ok

#

so it does not work

#

like inverse tangent

#

one min

#

why does bi become

#

bigot

#

when i put it in wolfram alpha

#

I put it in as you said

#

and it did not give 0

trim lichen
#

it does, WA is just trying to avoid bullshit when a+bi is a real negative number...

proven chasm
#

what?

#

b is a complex?

#

then why does it not

trim lichen
#

jesus christ

proven chasm
#

say true when a and b are real here

trim lichen
#

no, b itself isn't complex and i never said b was complex

proven chasm
#

oh ok

#

but why is it not 0?

trim lichen
#

why is what not 0?

proven chasm
#

when I put

#

arg(a+bi)+arg(a-bi)

#

why does not just output 0

trim lichen
#

because, if it just so happens that a+bi is a real negative number, then arg(a+bi) and arg(a-bi) both equal pi, so the sum is 2pi and not 0...

proven chasm
#

Oh ok

#

but that can only

#

happen if b is imaginary right

#

or 0

trim lichen
#

.................

#

it can only happen if a < 0 and b = 0.

#

you yourself declared a and b as real

#

integer, even

proven chasm
#

ok

timber spoke
#

Is this what you are trying to do?

proven chasm
#

what?

#

one min

proven chasm
#

but I get

#

e^i(arg(a+bi+arg(a-bi)=1

#

and so

#

arg(a+bi+arg(a-bi)

#

if that is 0

#

it works out

timber spoke
#

if the question is asking for all real solutions of a and b, it is safe to assume that a and b are real, since a and b are real, we can let arg be inverse tan.

then your line simply becomes, tan theta + tan (-theta) = tan theta - tan theta = 0

trim lichen
#

no the question is asking for INTEGER solutions of a and b

#

unless OP wants to amend that

proven chasm
#

ya it integer

timber spoke
#

yes, integer solutions are also real

proven chasm
#

solutions

#

what I want to do

#

is find all integer sol

#

and the add up how many I get

timber spoke
#

So can I confirm if a and b can be complex numbers with integer Re and Img coefficients? or does Integer solution here only refer to Real integer solutions

proven chasm
#

a and b are integers.

#

and when you square them both and then

#

add them

#

you get another integer

edgy cedar
#

For integers a, b a^2 + b^2 = 25 this should remind you of a certain triangle

proven chasm
#

3,4,5

#

But I am trying to generlize

#

where if you get any numebr c

#

you can find how many integer a,b satisty

edgy cedar
#

Got it

proven chasm
#

a^2+b^2=c

#

anyway my doubt was cleared

#

I entered the wrong thing

cuz i think its said i cant take it for granted?

or must i write a long elaborate proof for that

I don't get this at all

#

according to the book the inverse of F(11) and regular f(11) should both be 8

#

but I get different answers

valid moss
#

you're supposed to find the x value for which f(x) is 11

#

not find the value of f at 11

desert bane
#

what does that mean

valid moss
#

when is f(x) = 11

#

for what x value

desert bane
#

ohhh

I get it

sad dunno how to do this

wraith hinge
#

rational root theorem might help

#

i was thinking of that too

#

but isnt that for rational

#

numbers

#

ig interger can be represented

#

leading coefficient is 1

#

too

#

hmm so q or 1 and their negatives

#

no dont i have to sum p and q first

#

actually, maybe use vieta's

#

pq is the sum and p+q is the product

#

what then

#

idk

#

ig it tells you that p,q are also roots to a similar quadratic

#

reducing mod p and q gives that x must be a square mod pq, but idk if that helps

dense breach
#

give the roots names

wraith hinge
#

names

#

?

#

root x1

#

and x2

dense breach
#

ok

#

now write the polynomial in terms of them

dense zealot
#

ok u just put the x to be those names??

#

wut then

dense breach
#

what

#

no the whole polynomial

dense zealot
#

so you sub in X1 and X2 in the x in the polynomial?

dense breach
#

no

dense zealot
#

wdym then

dense breach
#

(x-x1)(x-x2)

dense zealot
#

ok

#

sure

dense breach
#

now expand

dense zealot
#

like both are factors of the

#

polynomial

dense breach
#

you called those the roots

#

yeah

dense zealot
#

ok wut after expansion

dense breach
#

compare it to the form you have

dense zealot
#

compare it to the polynomial??

dense breach
#

yes

dense zealot
#

so x1*x2 should be the constant terms

#

p+q

dense breach
#

yeah

dense zealot
#

and -x2x-x1x is the mid term

dense breach
#

yeah

dense zealot
#

ok

#

what then

dense breach
#

x1 and x2 are integers

#

p+q = x1*x2

dense zealot
#

isnt this just vieta

dense breach
#

pq = x1+x2

dense zealot
#

what do those two even tell me

#

i still donr konw p and q

dense breach
#

you know what

#

screw all this

#

a polynomial has integer solutions when it's discriminant is a perfect square

#

maybe that'll help lol

dense zealot
#

non-related rant

#

i still have all these to do

#

in 40 min

dense breach
#

oof

dense zealot
#

plus these questions are made by my prof himself

#

so i cant get online solutions

#

he lit has the copy right OZ math there lol

dense breach
#

so (p+q)^2-4pq

#

No

#

(pq)^2-4(p+q)

#

yeah idk what he wants

wraith hinge
#

Question 17?

dense breach
wraith hinge
#

i just wanna give up

dense breach
#

Nah not 17 the old Q

wraith hinge
#

on all the remaning

dense breach
#

I feel like maybe it's typed wrong or something

#

or maybe I just can't see something

#

Anyways 17 ig

wraith hinge
#

any question

#

would be fine

#

😅

#
def is_square(integer):
    root = math.sqrt(integer)
    return integer == int(root + 0.5) ** 2

i=10

for p in range(-i,i):
    for q in range(-i,i):
        test=p**2*q**2+4*(p+q)
        if test>=0:
            if is_square(test):
                if (p*q+test)%2==0:
                    print(p,q)```
#

how do you take the discriminate for a cubic or is there such thing. Im looking at 18

dense breach
#

No obvious pattern?

wraith hinge
#

not that I could see

#

just that p=1 works for anything

#

actually, maybe only p=-q away from 1 and 0

dense breach
#

hmm

dense breach
#

Or if it'll help

#

My first observation is it's not true for every p,q,r

#

for example x^3-1 only has 1 real root

wraith hinge
#

ok it's fine, ill just ask him to explain all the questionscatThin4K

#

.close

#

wrontg

#

account

dense breach
#

well I can do 17 probably

wraith hinge
#

how

dense breach
#

Might not even help

#

The function is always negative for negative x

wraith hinge
#

moni i need you tonight for the reimann thing yesterday btw, maybe not tonight

#

i should wrap up my inequality notes tonight

wraith hinge
#

true

dense breach
#

2x(x-1)(x-2)

#

Nah

#

For clarity

#

2(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)

#

is 2x^3-12x^2+22x-12

wraith hinge
#

ok

dense breach
#

Has 3 real roots

dense zealot
#

ok

dense breach
#

2x^3-2x^2+2x-2 has 1 real root ({1,i,-i})

#

so the answer is sometimes lmao

dense zealot
#

what

dense breach
#

great question professor

dense zealot
#

hes gonna be so mad causei answered 2 successfully out of the 22

18 I meant I can do

dense zealot

sure

#

go ahead

Not 17 @dense zealot

#

.reopen

trim joltBOT
#

dense breach
#

I already did it

#

I meant I was doing 18 not 17 srry

dense zealot
#

nice nice

dense breach
#

17 is some bs I have no idea

#

18 the answer is sometimes

dense zealot
#

the roots for 18 are 1, i, and -i?

dense breach
#

no

#

look at 18

dense zealot
#

yes

#

staring at it

dense breach
#

it's an arbitrary polynomial

dense zealot
#

quite so

dense breach
#

Based on the choices of signs

#

I assumed (though it would be much nicer if the professor specified)

#

p,q,r have to be positive

#

So I found 2 polynomials, 1 which has 1 real root and one which has 3

#

that satisfy that form

dense zealot
#

ok

#

what polynomial>

dense breach
dense breach
dense zealot
#

how did u find them

dense breach
#

First one was just 2(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)

#

I figured that probably had the alternating form needed, and of course it has zeroes at 1,2,3

dense zealot
#

nice ill write that for my answer

dense breach
#

any equation with all positive roots will have the same alternating form

#

But not vice versa

dense breach
#

U need 2 answers really

#

You need to show it can have 3 or 1 real roots

#

Or maybe the answer is just "no"

#

because they're not always real

dense zealot
#

my class is starting, ill message u the solutions for the other ones

dense breach
#

Awful question still lol

#

Ah all right

dense zealot
#

moni

dense breach
#

Yes

dense zealot
#

i dont get these stuff😭

dense breach
#

power series convergence hmm

#

Im surprised he doesn't use Lim sup

dense zealot
#

what is lim sup

dense breach
#

or wait maybe that isn't needed

#

No it's still good

#

Still stronger

dense zealot
dense breach
#

infinite sequence

dense zealot
#

most of the stuff he wrote under the topic limit of function

#

i dont quite get

#

ill prob have to relisten

#

to recording

dense breach
#

ok Lim sup isn't important here really

#

it's like

#

If you have a sequence that doesn't converge, but oscillates infinitely within a certain region

dense zealot
#

ok

dense breach
#

Lim sup is the upper bound of that region and Lim inf is the lower bound

#

So like

#

1,-1,1,-1,1,-1,...

dense zealot
#

upper bound is 1?

dense breach
#

Yeah

#

Lim sup

dense zealot
#

ok sick

dense breach
#

And Lim inf is -1

#

And unlike limits, which don't always exist

#

Lim sup and Lim inf always exist for a sequence if you allow them to be +-infinity in some cases

dense zealot
#

He’s roasting me so bad lmao

dense breach
#

So using them you actually get an exact condition for the radius of convergence

dense breach
dense zealot
#

Question 16 is supposed to use discriminate

#

😅

dense breach
#

why am I teaching all the material you're missing because you're talking to me instead lol

#

this seems cyclic

dense zealot
#

Hmm even if I listen

#

I doubt I’ll understand this dude

dense breach
#

lmao fair

#

Hopefully I'll be a good professor

dense zealot
dense breach
#

:)

dense zealot
#

He’s using discriminate

dense breach
#

lmaoooooo

#

Sounds like a pokemon move

#

Pikachu casts racism

#

It's super effective

dense zealot
#

Where did -q

#

Come from

#

Tf

dense breach
#

Idk wasn't the problem originally -px

#

instead of -q

#

Maybe he's solving a different problem

dense zealot
#

Oh wait

#

Question 16

dense breach
#

I want you to speak up and ask him if p^2 = p^2+0 is valid lol

#

if he asks about sum of squares

#

a²+b²

dense zealot
#

Oh he says it’s very hard to think of the solution he’s writing

dense breach
#

lmao

dense zealot
#

I don’t get it but whatever

dense breach
#

istg if it's just p²-4q

#

and p²+4q

#

hmm or that might not check out

dense zealot
#

What is he doing moni sad

dense breach
#

Wild

dense zealot
#

As usual

dense breach
#

That's some wild

#

Quick

#

Mention p²+0

#

Now

#

Actually

dense zealot
#

What do I say

dense breach
#

P is an integer

dense zealot
#

Write out full sentence

dense breach
#

Is p²+0² also a valid solution

dense zealot
#

I tried to speak and he spoke louder

#

Cause

#

He didn’t want

dense breach
#

scream

dense zealot
#

Interruption

#

😅

dense breach
#

ask him when you can

dense zealot
#

Ok

#

He’s doing some parity stuff

dense zealot
dense breach
#

do it

#

It's a valid question

#

I promise

dense zealot
#

Ok in a sec

#

What did he fucking do😭😭

dense breach
#

Trying to prove (M-N)/2 and (m+n)/2 are integers

dense zealot
#

He said no

#

What’s q

#

He said u understood it oppositely

#

Or etc

dense breach
#

can't write q

dense zealot
#

Wtv

#

Yay

#

He said u can’t write q now or smth

dense breach
#

with current solution

#

no but it's still a valid solution to the first part

dense zealot
#

He said that

#

He said many other things

#

I didn’t comprehend

dense breach
#

You shouldn't need to use the details of later questions to deduce which correct answers to earlier questions are actually correct lol

#

But I'll give him benefit of the doubt here

#

lol

dense zealot
#

Bro what is his solution tho😭

#

Lol he said question 12

#

Is wrong too

#

Cogwheel did that one

dense breach
#

yeah it's pretty nuts

#

what was Q12?

dense zealot
#

Image is sending forever

dense breach
#

well part 1 is definitely 4

#

i assume that's what u did

dense zealot
#

That’s what I did. He said it’s wrong

dense breach
#

that's cause you can find exact values of a,b,c

dense zealot
#

This is somehow the right approach

dense breach
#

well yeah that's the start of what looks like a vlid proof

dense zealot
#

Rotational symmetry equation he calls

dense breach
#

that's 13 nvm

#

yeah the solution to 12 was perfectly valid

dense zealot
dense zealot
#

Like what I wrote

dense breach
#

maybe you didn't elaborate enough

dense zealot
#

Hmm he said it’s completely wrong 😭

dense breach
#

does he have a counterexample?

#

i think he's mistaken

dense zealot
#

Idk read his stuff, I also don’t know 😅

#

He’s not done yet

#

He’s literally stuck rn 🐓

#

It’s hilarious to watch him not solving the question 🤩

#

He says that my solution is using different cases which is logically wrong

#

X is a variable

#

You can’t assume f(x) is larger than x

#

Or smaller

dense breach
#

what

#

for every x f(x)>x or f(x)<x

dense zealot
#

Yay he says that’s not right

#

🦧

dense breach
#

but the alternative is f(x)=x

dense zealot
dense breach
#

does f(x)=x then?

#

i'm not saying (for all x f(x)>x) or (for all x f(x)<x), we'll prove that later

#

i'm saying for all x (f(x)>x or f(x)<x)

#

we know f(x) =/= x, right

#

that's given

dense zealot
#

right

dense breach
#

so

#

for a given x

#

either f(x)>x

#

or f(x)<x

dense zealot
#

Right

dense breach
#

so

#

suppose there were 2 values a,b

#

such that f(a) > a, and f(b) < b

#

consider g(x) = f(x) - x

#

g(a) > 0, g(b) < 0

dense zealot
#

Ok I’m asking him

dense breach
#

g is continuous, since it's a difference of continuous functions

#

so by the IVT, there exists c between a and b such that g(c)=0

#

then f(c)=c, a contradiction

dense zealot
#

Is this what you are getting at?

dense breach
#

i don't think so

dense zealot
#

I said exactly what you said. I think he got

dense breach
#

tell him the proof you saw involved the use of IVT maybe

dense zealot
#

What you mean

dense breach
#

ah ok

dense zealot
#

Lol

dense breach
#

ah nice

#

yeah it was a really cool proof

dense zealot
#

So basically use non contradiction to prove the 2 cases ?

dense breach
#

yeah

#

well

dense zealot
#

Ok I don’t get the details but I’ll figure that out later

dense breach
#

f(f(x)) < f(x) < x

#

or f(f(x)) > f(x) > x in the first case

dense zealot
#

Yay he says that you have to be explicit about the cases

#

And without being explicit, it’s logically wrong or smth

#

@dense breach

#

18 uses the discriminate of

#

Cubic

#

😅

dense breach
#

lmao oml

#

wow

#

the generalized concept?

dense zealot
#

Idk He’s using cardano’s method(?

dense breach
#

the resultant

#

that's what it was called

dense zealot
#

He said this question is meant to make you use cardano

dense breach
#

what was the answer?

#

i'll look up cardano's method ig

dense zealot
#

He’s not done

dense breach
#

oml

#

you should bring up to him 2x^3-2x^2+2x-2 when he is

#

as that's 2(x-1)(x^2+1) and thus has 1 real root

#

unless he acknowledges the answer to the problem is "sometimes"

dense zealot
#

Think he’s aware

#

This is cardano

#

It’s basically discriminate for quadratic

#

But he turned cubic to quadratic already

dense breach
#

ah ok

dense zealot
#

If d<0, there are 3 real roots

#

If d>0, 1 real root

#

And 2

#

Conjugate imaginary roots

dense breach
#

ah ok

#

maybe that's the same thing as resultant idk

dense zealot
#

If d=0, at least 2 real roots are the same

dense breach
#

maybe not

dense zealot
#

Cubic has at least 1 real root he said

#

He’s doing question 15

vagrant marsh
#

What problem are yall doin

dense breach
vagrant marsh
#

Where

dense zealot
#

All kinds of questions we know the method but can’t apply them well👍

vagrant marsh
#

Where

dense zealot
#

Lemme resend

dense breach
dense zealot
#

15 rn

vagrant marsh
#

Which one are you looking at specifically?

#

Ah

dense breach
#

feel free to look if ur curious but this is really more of a chat at this point lol

dense zealot
#

Lol yes

#

Indeed

#

Well it’s still my questions

#

Cause I can’t understand a shit

#

He’s writing

#

Mini is just helping

#

For intepretation

vagrant marsh
#

Vietas states that if we write the roots as r and s,
(x-r)(x-s)=x^2-(r+s)x+rs
Matching coefficients we get
r+s=pq
rs=p+q
Add together you get
rs+r+s=pq+p+q
We use sfft
(r+1)(s+1)=(p+1)(q+1)

dense zealot
#

Lol this is funny. If RS>r+s

#

Then pq is less than p+q

#

And there’s a problem

vagrant marsh
#

There isnt if one of them =1

dense zealot
#

What is he doing rn garlic 😭

dense breach
#

ah you add and subract hmm

vagrant marsh
#

Add them

dense breach
#

first add these

#

then subtract the 2nd from the first

#

r,s are the roots here

vagrant marsh
#

Ah i didnt think about subtracting 😅

dense zealot
#

Lol he’s solving inequality rn

#

Somehow

vagrant marsh
#

No?

#

Who is he

dense zealot
#

My prof

vagrant marsh
#

Interesting, is this live

dense zealot
#

Yeppp

dense zealot
vagrant marsh
#

Oh bruh listen to your prof

dense zealot
#

Can’t understand 😅

#

I always listen to the recording

#

@dense breach I’m super confused

vagrant marsh
#

Nvm im deluded

dense breach
#

ok im here lol

dense breach
dense zealot
#

Just different cases

#

And it’s solved somehow

#

Don’t need to consider p because when q=1, it already proves the p part

#

Somehow

#

Btw he’s speaking Chinese. So I’m trying my best to

#

Translate

dense breach
#

o dang

dense zealot
#

Number 17 now

#

😭

#

He subsided all x to 1/y

#

Substitute

#

And it’s the same

#

This is magical whycat

#

So this means that if r is a root, 1/r is also a root

dense breach
#

wow

dense zealot
#

He’s introducing a concept called symmetric polynomials

dense breach
#

that was the sigma stuff you did earlier

#

i saw it in your work

dense zealot
#

I didn’t even look at those

#

They seem quite unsolvable

dense breach
#

just let him talk lol don't ask him if it's just about every single question

#

i'mma not be very active here for a while

dense zealot
#

#

I can only fit in about 2

#

and you can leave

maybe a half hour to an hour

dense zealot
#

Ohh I thought 2 months

#

Or smith

lol

dense zealot
#

Which 2 questions

#

Moni!

#

Before you leave

dense breach
#

uh

#

19

#

and 25

dense zealot
#

Ok ok

#

Talk later

dense breach
#

all right

#

later

dense zealot
#

😭😭

#

He doesn’t want to explain cause it’s too obvious

#

Wtv

#

I’m asking 25

dense breach
#

I tried to pick ones so you'd understand the explanation

#

lol

#

20 maybe them

#

then

dense zealot
#

Okok
