Re: What do you think?
Hi;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't.

Re: What do you think?
New Problem:
I predict 10^40 posts all with answers to this one.
On another forum the question of finding the smallest n for
came up. Can you find any n quickly and then the smallest one?
A says) No solutions!
B says) That is incorrect you can find a solution almost by inspection and then using some simple computational moves the smallest one. The answers are ...
C says) Stop gibbering B! A has spoken! Your solutions are obviously false.
B says) Even if they work?!
D says) Of course, math by reasoning and logical thought will always smash you computational boys.
E says) You prefer your theories to hard evidence?
A says) This ain't physics E. Math is an axiomatic system and I know them axioms better than you or B.
B says) Math started with the integers and counting them. Computation is more fundamental.
C says) Glad to know there is no solution, thanks A.
A says) Your welcome.
Can you prove B right?

Either the problem isn't well posed, or it's a simple one.

But it is the smallest one for which it is true.

Re: What do you think?
Hi;
Yes, but it is the trivial solution ( 1 or 0 ) and is never allowed because it lends no understanding to where the other solutions are. Please try again.
