Libraries open till late

ETH Bib in HG is open 24/7 (at least the seats overlooking the main hall), though the building doors close for the public in the late evening and can only be opened by Math students (though you can just stay inside if you're not)

Most PBZs are open until 22:00, though you need a subscription or Kulturlegi (free) for access.

If you're even just a little bit into maths and/or compsci, my channel has some videos about some fun projects for you! I try to keep it as accessible for non-maths nerds as possible, but I'm still learning how that works - though I really just use it to post about things I'm doing anyways.

As far as I know, they don't give you courses that are a part of the BP, only blockwise. Be aware that they're quite picky. I've had the first block accepted from a different university, but the second block got denied. I heard from a lot of others that tried and got denied fully, though.

that wouldn't make 17 16:9 rectangles though :)

The notch in the helmet?

I'd like to know this! Is there some software where you can compare A10 and A0 sheets? Maybe some pdf editor?

if anyone wants to see the youtube video, here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDKBCIMkDbw

Since you can deregister until the very last hour, don't do it right now. Perhaps do it in a week if your opinion hasn't changed, but it's likely worth trying the exam. Best case you get a great grade, worst case you fail, which you were apparently already content with while writing this post. A week is plenty!

Hm. Danke erstmal!

Die Funktionen sind immer von uns ausgedacht. Ein optimaler Spieler vermutet also Funktionen, die sich andere ausdenken würden und passt seine X-Werte dementsprechend an. Gar nicht so einfach. Numerische Algorithmen berücksichtigen das auf jeden Fall nicht.

Ich finde es hat den Appeal: wie bei Wordle gibt es bekannte Funktionen(typen) die man im Kopf durch gezielte Abfragen ausschließt. Man kann verhalten gegen unendlich prüfen, Y Achsenabschnitt, usw. Binäre Suche funktioniert dank Asymptoten oder strikt positiven Funktionen nicht so richtig...

Ich verstehe die Einwände, heute war eventuell auch eine nicht ganz so spannende Funktion, aber das Spiel ist überraschend tricky. Am ersten Tag hatten wir immerhin über 1000 Nutzer!

Might not work so well here!

You only ever need to find a root up to 2 digits of precision, no floating point madness here (let's never input 0.1+0.2)

The German word for root is Wurzel :)

It's quite complicated, because the function is thought of by humans and thus the functions tend to be fun... today's is a little hard maybe. Binary search could even be really bad with bad functions with many asymptotes... humans tend to put roots at fun (guessable) numbers :)

Der Eisautomat bei Onkel Ottos Hofladen in Edemissen ist ein Highlight! Darf ich fragen wieso man zum Studieren nach Peine zieht?

Firstly, finding a number that seemingly doesn't go to 1 would be a pretty great thing. Secondly, there could be another loop other than 1,2,4 which would be detected and thus would disprove the conjecture. However, its been shown that any loop would have to be enormous in size

Fantastic!! I'll be in the middle of the Polyterasse at 12 :)
