What math lets you most easily be convinced you’ve come up with the right answer when you actually haven’t?
Seems like combinatorics comes in second only to statistics.
- svat 2y agoWhat is the relevance of this comment to this post? Are you insinuating that the author did not come up with the right answer? That's odd here because the answers are actually verified in multiple ways (Sage code, looking up the numbers on OEIS).
- WhitneyLand 2y agoNot at all, the post seems solid. Just fond memories of a combinatorics class in school. I like problems that are deceptively simple. Easy to get lured in to, then satisfying as layers of complexity are peeled back.
