Rather than P=NP, i am more amused by the blatant violation of Fermat theorem in the back
Could someone spoon feed a litfag about why this is such a big deal?

NP problems are renowned for being exponentially difficult to solve with greater variables. if someone were to bring them into P time, they would be solvable with far less computational power, and not with exponential increase in difficulty.
the conjecture of P=NP is that if you can bring an NP problem into P space, you can bring ALL NP problems into P space. this would mean that it's possible to break cryptography's entropy barrier with far less computational resources than anticipated.

What is P space?
>>7799281
The difference between the two sides is smaller than an ordinary calculator can decide. Here's another "counter-example".
>>7799288
It would essentially solve every single problem.

A space you define as the space containing all the possible P - problems vica versa for NP

Exponentially, like O(2^n)? Isn't that a whole different class of problems, like solving chess?

Yes

NP problem means Nondeterminist polynomial, it's every probleme that you could solve in polynomial time if you were lucky.
In this kinf od problem it's usually easy to check if a solution work, but there are tons of possible solutions.
>>7799687
Yes, but doesn't that differ from exponential time? That's what I wanted to say. I'm not sure though, CS is not my field.
>>7799674
Seems not so intuitive as a non mathematician.

Read a little about deterministic Turing Machines and nondeterministic Turing Machines. It'll make more sense when you look at it in the context of those.

Simpson's rule?

I can't tell if thats a book I can't find or if thats a joke about the theorem
god help me

You're right and they're wrong.
P ⊆ NP∩coNP ⊆ NP∪coNP ⊆ PSPACE ⊆ EXPTIME ⊆ NEXPTIME ⊆ EXPSPACE
with P ⊊ EXPTIME, NP ⊊ NEXPTIME, PSPACE ⊊ EXPSPACE
It's just that the best algorithms we have so far are exponential
>CS is not my field
Don't worry, 99.95% of CS graduate don't understand their own field and 99.5% can't even code.
