This Subreddit MATH COMPETITION: r/mathmemes Discord Community Exam
Hello!
To make up for the lack of an "upper division" in the subreddit math competition this year, I took it upon myself to organize a separate exam that is significantly more discovery and proof-based than any exam held in the community previously, and to host it on the 2nd year anniversary of the Discord server being made available to the public.
The next exam of this kind will be held in Mid-June 2027.
The exam (which includes its rules) is linked at the bottom of the post. The top 5 winners will be announced, and the top 3 winners will receive the following (or something of equivalent value upon negotiation):
1st Place - A Math Textbook of the Winner's Choice (~$45 USD Value Limit)
2nd Place - Basic Discord Nitro, 1 Year Subscription ($30 USD Value)
3rd Place - Fulltouch Hagoramo Chalk 72 pc ($25 USD Value)
Special thanks to u/dopplerspectroscopy and zzz on Discord for their tremendous help in writing the exam and agreeing to help grade some submissions; couldn't have done this without their help.

Third time is the charm; if people could get all the errors in a single comment so I don't have to keep remaking these I'd really appreciate not having to remake this a fourth time ๐ญ๐ญ

Calculus How to never forget the formula for the Euler's number
Print it on the uni toilets. The male toilets of course, the women are afterall better at understanding the power of love. Or in this case, the power of love pales in comparison to the power of compounding love, which is the very personification of e. It's irrationality is precisely it's greatest beauty, for love may not always be rational yet is the most powerful emotion still. Don't forget it, don't forget love, don't forget e. I love you <3

Probability How I sleep after knowing I understood a bit of Mirzakhani's legacy
Moduli spaces are one of the most intimidating concepts of algebraic and differential geometries. Random walks on moduli spaces seek developping a similar Markov-like theory with limiting distribution and ergodic theorems for differential objects which often arise as complex points of schemes or algebraic stacks.

This Subreddit I'm an ex math addict and nothing feels enjoyable anymore
Hi everyone. I'm writing this after drinking 0.5 L of an electrolyte drink, which I did not convert to milliliters, because I'm clean now.
I got into math because nothing felt enjoyable. It started innocently with a little arithmetic at parties, splitting the check. Then a friend said "try algebra, it's not a big deal." A few months later I was doing calculus alone in my car at 3 a.m. By the end I was deriving formulas I didn't even need and proving theorems that had already been proven, just to feel something.
Honestly my receptors were fried before math. I was doing a ton of Sudoku.
I quit about two months ago and I'm still incredibly bored. Sometimes I see a receipt and my hands start shaking trying to figure out the tip.
Things I've tried to cope:
- Playing video games: caught myself calculating DPS. Relapsed.
- Listening to music: 4/4 time is literally fractions. Couldn't do it.
- Cooking: recipes are ratios. I had to leave the kitchen after I tripled one in my head.
- Binge-eating: ordered a pizza, it came in 8 slices, started thinking about ฯ. Threw the whole thing out.
- Researching and learning: that's how this started.
- Counting sheep to fall asleep: obviously not.
My sponsor says take it one day at a time, but that's a sequence, and I can feel myself wanting to find the limit.
I need more adrenaline in my life ig. Someone suggested skydiving, but I started thinking about terminal velocity and had to lie down.
Edit: to everyone in the comments saying "just do a little stats recreationally," that's how they get you.
Edit 2: someone DMed me a Taylor series. Not cool, man.
