User talk:Temperal/The Problem Solver's Resource Proofs

Yeah, uh, if you noticed the extremely big jump in difficulty, that was Temperal. Xpmath 01:06, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Heh, the first one isn't so bad, and the second one even I can solve with some effort, so it isn't too big of a jump. I just basically copied the solutions from their AoPSWiki pages; I might have to clean them up in a bit. Temperal 02:09, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

Compared to the two classic problems I posted, it's a big jump. It's kinda hard to find a problem that uses mainly contradiction without other stuff. Maybe I'll take USAMTS #2 from round 1. Also, your second problem is a bad choice; if someone doesn't know induction, I doubt they'll know what you did at all.Xpmath 03:33, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
