On the page it sends you to are a list of Million Dollar Problems.

Wiki is down (at least for me) today.  You might need to try again tomorrow.

:huh: I have had a look at the 7 problems and the only one I have a hope of understanding is the Riemann function one. As far as I can make out he derived a function for the pattern of prime numbers in the number system which consists of complex numbers, numbers made from real and imaginary components. And apparently it is conjected that the real component is 0.5 but noone can prove it or find out why...
Don't you just love maths??

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

I'm hoping to do computer science this year in University so I am going to be utterly fed up of it before long.  :burnup:

I started in CS, but I found that alot of the people are, well... social skill lacking.  And a little full of themselves.

At least math people know they are socially ackward and full of themselves.

Lol are the CS people all in denial? Thanks for this tip I will be prepared now.
At least they have their computers to talk to.  :rolleyes:

Thought I had some fun:

Qustion 1: There are more Np then P because real life is mostly Np (proof? go to real life)

Qustion 2: Sry cant comprehand it correctly yet? Maybe If anyone can comprehand it they may actualy indeed solve it.

Qustion 3: Based on deffinition of simply connected I say yes a 3d sphere is simple connected (proof? read the diffinition of simple connected)

Qustion 4: NO CALCULES! ok ok , some write a ploting program that plots bouth real and imaginary numbers , that proof , you will see that infact the curve for real numbers is the same as the curve for imaginary numbers. why? simple #1 they already suspect it is. #2 the curve is not shifted in any way based on the formula.

Qustion 5: We are a little back on thechnology so it seems to prove that. We need a way to abserve all this particals at light speed.

Qustion 6: Simple, Write a computer program that accuratly simulates malecules of liquid and gas, The source code for the computer program is all the formulas you need. How to write the program you say? Start by getting an electron microscope , and do gessing and checking. Better yet, write a self mutating program that does all the guessing and checking for you.

Qustion 7: Proof: You have to equations falling from the same tree, If you know for one equation there is no way to deside if it has any solution , then yes for the other equations there is ALSO NO WAY TO DESIDE if it has any solutions.

:laugh:

Awesome, go collect your prize money form the Clay institute.

Assuming of course they pass the rigors of peer review, you should see your money in about 4 to 9 months-ish.
