ARML TST 2006(I didn't know where to put it sorry)
Posted: Tue Apr 24, 2007 8:58 pmA Solution Race:
Pretty simple rules:
1) Solve 1 problem per post
2) Must Quote the original question
3) Must type up the complete solution not just the answer
4) Must be TEXed
5) First Person to post the solution gets a point
6) Once a solution is posted, don't post another solution (unless you believe the answer is wrong or you are already in the middle of typing it up)
