Make 100 using A) three 1s, B) three 2s, C) three 3s. (My problems)
Form expressions (in three problems) that are equivalent to 100.
For each of these three problems, you must use all of the three
digits and no other digits.
Also, you are allowed only these:
concatenation of digits
decimal point
addition, subtraction, division**, multiplication signs
(and/or use grouping symbols for products)
grouping symbols such as parentheses, brackets, and braces
factorial symbol, and possible nesting of these is permitted
square root symbol, and nesting of these is also permitted
exponentiation
floor and ceiling functions

Hi;
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.

hi
i think rya's soluton is better because it doesn't use digits other than 3 3s
The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't.

anonimnystefy,
his solution does only use three 3s and no other digits.
That "100" is not part of it as a base; it is following the equals sign as
what his expression is equal to.
Let me know if that is what you were referring to, please.
