On average, I eat one apple an hour. If I wait 3 hours, what is the chance I have eaten 3 apples?
None, because you were waiting and not eating apples.

You understand what I meant, however.

It was obvious af nigga
Is there an approach to take to find the largest product that is possible to be made, by only multiplying one and only one number from each row and column?
Or even a brute force way I can use in Matlab.
Attached problem is easy example
In this example i think (i may be wrong ) the answer would be (9*9*6*3)=1458
But is there a general method
>>8054823
9*9*7*4 is the biggest product.
How big are the biggest grids you're working with? Because for an n*n grid, there are n! possible products. So you could brute force calculate them all and then choose the maximum, assuming n is small enough.
>>8054823
9*9*7*4 is bigger
solve this, genius
1st
>>8054788
Couldn't solve this one too.
>>8054788
It's the last one
So many people here ask how to get better at math. Today I'll ask the opposite question.
How do I get worse at math? I hate to be that genius how always understands everything. I want to experience what it's like to struggle with math like an average brainlet.

Start studying Inter-Universal Teichmüller Theory.
I used to be really smart until I abused drugs (namely amphetamines)
So try that
>>8054807
No, life just requires more as you get older.
correlation doesn't equal causation.
confirmation bias to the max.
kill yourself.
-anon
i dont get it. i can solve them with the elimination method fucking easily, but by substitution i get the wrong answer every fucking time. why?? why does my brain go vegetable when i do this??
>>8054708
I will help you if you rewrite it with proper x's.
it's because of your bad handwriting so you can't tell if line 2 starts with a one or a seven
Anyone else just got abused by IB Physics exam?
1) This is not related to science or math
2) underage
>>8054775
1) It's a fucking PHYSICS exam... How autistic do you have to be to not understand the relationship between Science and Physics?
2) Basically everyone who writes IB Physics exam this year will be 18 and above, me included.
The grades boundaries better be adjusted otherwise I'm cucked
>I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.
what did he mean by this, /sci/?
>>8054694
Worlds= the two arsecheeks orbiting your mums arsehole
destroyer of worlds = he destroyed your mums arse
means he has shit grammar

No idea why Oppenheimer's most famous quote is when he referenced the Bhagavad Gīta. Probably just trying to appeal to eccentric intellectuals which is why it has relevance in modern universities.
Can we have a sci videogame develop thread?
simulations are welcome here too.
Play my game, /sci/.

I think demoscene is more up /sci/ alley.
Search for Revision demoparty.
Throughout shader showdown competition last year (live coding event) few people made amazing stuff.
So if you are into math check that out.

>humans have tens of billions of neurons
>neurons firing is what produces thought
>neurons can only be active or inactive with no in-between
>binary code is what computers run on
>binary code consists of an active state and an inactive state
>tens of billions of logic gates arranged like a neural network should thus produce artificial intelligence
Could something like this work?
>>8054407
>neurons can only be active or inactive with no in-between
Sorry anon this is completely wrong, I don't know where you got this but I suggest reading up on how neurons work. Purves is a fantastic introductory textbook and it's readily available online
>>8054407
Neurons arent transistors. Each one is a machine more complex than the space shuttle
>>8054407
I think you're confusing neurons with action potentials
Hey /sci/
I make program to make mandelblot GIF.

Which Sci-Fi game/book/movie is scientifically closest to reality?
Take one thing from that universe and explain how it works
>>8054302
The closer it gets the less of Sci-Fi it is.

The Martian book was very good
Where is the 'me' part located in my brain? What part of the brain, if removed and replaced, would kill my existence and replace me with somebody else? How is it that I remain 'me' throughout my entire life even though my brain changes a considerable amount from age 5 to age 70?
I know the answer. I'm just checking if this board actually has any smart people, or if it's how I expect and you're all just a bunch of textbook readers and calculator monkeys who are incapable of philosophizing.
>>8054257
hello rato.
.
I am smart
it's impossible to know if you have the same consciousness you had 20 years ago
Why is linear algebra so big and scary?

is the philosophy of science useful for acutal scientists ?
Nope, but it makes philosophy kids feel like they're important because they actually think that without them morality wouldn't exist.
It may structure your thoughts, but it ain't gonna do shit in the lab.
What do you think?
Does anyone else have any cool science or math tattoos? Post em if you got em.

I have a fork bomb (in *sh) in my forearm and will probably get pic related next. It's a garden of eden in Conway's Life
