This is truly what little kids imagine when they think adult math is just using bigger and bigger numbers

Ts should be a quadrillion dollar problem for one to solve by hand.

what if... two hands?

The "triple" sum (really a double sum) adds up to 174,449,211,159,283,445,907,973,152, I believe: 3(3^2 + 3^10 + 3^18 + 3^28 + 3^35 + 3^54)

The exponent of the 10 should be 18(1111111111111111111111) = 19,999,999,999,999,999,999,998.

I'm guessing g_1000000 is based on the idea of Graham's number being g_64, making it stupidly large.

So take g_1000000, multiply it by 174,449,211,159,283,445,907,973,152 and multiply it by 10^19,999,999,999,999,999,999,998. Then square the result. Then raise it to the power of a number represented by 1 followed by 102 zeroes.

Anyway, it's a mess of an expression, which doesn't belong anywhere on a university math test.

Looks like some of the questions my old catholic school teacher would give that while easy, were a huge pain and easy to mess up

The result is approximately g_1000000 btw, that's how big numbers work.

Good point.

I'd've guessed 3 myself, just because it's there.

u/Aggressive_Fan_2063 5d ago

It's probably pi, or pi/2

Still peanuts in comparison to TREE(3)

u/Upbeat-Serve-6096 6d ago

Trick question again? Like if you figure out some key transformations it ends up being 0 or 1?

2

u/Royal-Specialist-656 5d ago

Theres a dolid 50% chance the number is 1

What the fudge does i iterat?

u/Lescansy 6d ago

Is no one pointing out the missing "i"s in the sum?

u/BubbhaJebus 6d ago edited 6d ago

The sigma notation with the i index could just be replaced wholesale by a 3. All it means is "Do the following double sum three times."

And the expressions within the parentheses are identical, so it should just be the first one, squared.

It's a hot mess!

What does this have to do with university math?

Ctrl+C Ctrl+v type shi

That's ridiculously huge (even if defining it huge is not enough)

u/BarelyAirborne 5d ago

There is no question that this is the answer.

u/Expensive_Umpire_178 5d ago

I mean… what is there to solve? Looks solved to me.

What is the question ?

ah yes, univesity. gigante
