Whoops, edited. I'm not sure about any of the questions :P

Some cool 'challenge' maths questions I came up with: $i) In a 2 player game where $|A_1| = n$, $|A_2| = m$, and all payoff values are distinct, show that there can be no more than $\min(n,m)$ Nash equilibria. $ii) You are now given that $n = m$, and furthermore that there are precisely $n$...

99.90, all B6s. I did 12 units and to be honest I expected SDD to be my two units that didn't count, since it scales terribly compared to my other subjects and I didn't think I'd do particularly well in the exam. This meant that I barely spent any time explicitly studying SDD -- however, I <3...

Understand, don't memorise. You don't necessarily have to do any study (at least, not in the traditional sense of sitting down for x hours and reading a textbook/writing notes) to get good marks. I believe the most important thing is to map out relationships between concepts in your mind and be...

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon $i) $\Gamma(1) = \lim_{t \to \infty} \int_{0}^{t}e^{-x} \ dx = \lim_{t \to \infty} \left[ -e^{-x} \right]_{0}^{t} = -e^{-\infty} - (-e^{0}) = 0 - (-1) = 1. $ii) $ \Gamma(n+1) = \lim_{t \to \infty} \int_{0}^{t} x^{n}e^{-x} \ dx = \lim_{t \to \infty} \left( \left[...

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon It's the name of the function he defined.

Study smart, not hard. More hours spent studying does not equate to more effective study. I went overseas for just over 2 weeks, a month before my first HSC exam :) and circumstances meant I had literally zero time to study while there. On the other hand, I made all my friends jealous by...

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon derp. it's too late at night for this shit haha. someone else do it

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon a) ∠ABO = ∠ACP = ∠ADO = ∠AEP = 90deg (angle of radius and tangent = 90 deg) therefore OB || PC (corresponding angles) therefore ∠AOB = ∠APC (corresponding angles), let this be θ ∠ABP = 180 - ∠AOB = 180 - θ (angles on a straight line are supplementary) AOT =...

Re: HSC 2013 4U Marathon no need, they're both correct

I agree completely. Our school never had a student get an ATAR over 99.8 before 2012, and we had 2 99.9+s last year. Your school is only a limitation if you choose to let it be so. If you're concerned about your cohort pulling you down, work harder in assessments and rank 1st in every subject...

Hello, I came first in course in SDD last year and I've had a bunch of people ask to see my major project. I made a mathematical flash game called Plotting Revenge, implemented in Adobe Flex (like flash but more geared toward developers, not animators). I made these choices for a few reasons...

It's not based on getting a 'higher' mark -- this implies that they did well despite going to a bad school. It's getting the top mark in that school (filtered by who has UNSW in their prefs), which could still mean not doing all that great. Getting the top mark in a shitty school deserves no...

nice try owner of meat and wine co. also you didnt tell me what book you wrote!

Bondi Icebergs -- the classy upstairs joint, not the mediocre pub-ish downstairs. Also, Barzura next to Coogee Beach.

AAA is so retarded. You get more points for being the top student in a shitty school than you do for representing Australia in an international academic olympiad. 'Academic Achievement' my ass...
