Hello from medical student
HI,
I am 19 male, studying for a medical degree in New Delhi, India.
I always had fun with mathematics problems, so i decided to join this forum.
Hope to have a good time in vacations..

By the way....has anyone heard of the riddle in which an egg-seller's eggs break and he tells how many eggs he had as follows...
"If counted in 2s, 1 remain
If counted in 3s, 2 remain..."
or would anyone like me to put the problem?

hi anandbar
welcome to the forum.it is nice to meet new people esspecially those who like math.
as for the problem i think i solved once something similar so it would be nice of you to post the problem preferably in a new topic.

Hi anandbrar;
Welcome to the forum! That is a problem best solved by the Chinese remainder theorem.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.
