2. Lethal

3. LolWolf

Well, it'd be a grad level number theory class, but it's a problem I was given in a summer camp as part of a worksheet.

4. Lethal

haha well idk anything have you tried looking up similar problems or proofs like this http://f2.org/maths/nthproof.html

5. LolWolf

Eeyup, haven't found anything.

6. Lethal

oh, well i'm sorry i won't be of any help then. I just barged in here due to the fact no one else was trying to help. good luck.

7. LolWolf

It's fine, thanks. Yeah, I haven't been able to solve this problem since quite the time.

8. Lethal

and you could try posting this on Yahoo! answers.

Have you tried: http://math.stackexchange.com/ http://mathoverflow.net/ http://www.mathworld.wolfram.com Wikipedia??? (Actually, if you post your question on the talk page of a user who seems knowledgeable, you can occasionally get an answer.)

I've tried the latter of the three, but I was going to post it on Math Overflow/Stack Exchange, haven't yet... thanks, though...
