Q: How do you cheat on a test?
A: *learn it*

Wow this is very deep.
@@siroshcelot *It is.*
Parker method of memorization
It's all coming together
2+2+2 = 6 and I'm prepared to accept that as given.
2+2x2, 2^2+2
It's a crazy world.

i thought he was joking about memorizing the whole table. And then he wasn't joking. And I was filled with fear of the man.
When I was young, I memorized a bunch of useless stuff like that and now my memory is obese and sluggish due to early abuse. It's not like exercising a muscle, it's like an eating disorder. You don't have to believe me. You'll find out on your own. By then I won't be able to say "I told you so" so I'm saying it now.
not sure if you're joking about him not joking, but Matt *was* joking

CoolGuy55000 I'm mesmerising GCSE maths answers on the Internet lol. I'm doing it 2 years early but I will definitely get a C without cheating lol
I always try to develop a real intuition for everything in my engineering courses.
I don't like using formulas and handbooks, I feel much more flexible when I can actually derive things from scratch. =P
In fact, I recently spent several hours making sure that I could derive all the formulas for central-force motion, and then reviewed them once a day for a couple weeks until it really had stuck.
Now I can derive periapsides, apoapsides, distances, velocities and eccentricities without having to look up a damn thing. :D
Laurelindo that is pretty much what i do as well
+Laurelindo
This. This one-thousand times. This is the exact problem I had all throughout school. Every single teacher I had threw formulae at me, told me to remember them, and made no effort to explain their derivatives. May as well have made random numbers up and said they were important. It wasn't until a few years ago that I had to start tracking inventories that I ended up having to (reluctantly at first) relearn basic maths, as there came a point where I didn't know the operations I wanted Excel to do. Best decision I've ever made. Not that I'm particularly far along, mind you - but, figuring out how the different branches fit together, how they came to be, and more importantly WHY these things are true is fascinating, and quickly became something I was utterly obsessed with.
I might also add that, with an intuitive understanding of the rules and why things function the way they do, there are indeed the real-life applications that people so often spout about, even if they themselves couldn't have given you a single example.

That's the great thing about the human brain: you can cheat by memorizing your cheat notes, and then you can look at them without anyone being able to tell. It's a real loophole in life--you can cheat by memorizing." -Parker 2k17
thats called studying
That's how I got through high school and university, no wonder it was so easy...and boring.
The subject matter such as this video wasn't boring, it was the way my instructors taught, I learned more by memorizing the text books and reference books, like Matt said.
I have a friend with perfect recall memory and I think he's being a jackass every time he brings something like THAT up "Just remember every detail perfectly, it's easy."

That is a determination that many people do not have. Don't underestimate it. That kind of tenacity will make someone be the kind of person who becomes a billionaire just to prove a point.

That depends. If you need to formally prove something on a test, you *could* memorize the entire proof, but that would be cheating the test. If you pass the test without having the requisite knowledge the test is testing you for, you have cheated the test (and yourself).

Hmm.... i might have underestimated the problem a little bit. I have to make the script place all kinds of operators in an expression and then make it evaluate it, which is a bit more difficult than I thought. Plus, I have to tell the script to put brackets in all types of places... I've given up on it for now, however I might get back on it soon.
Obvious tip: abstract! Expression tree… Similar method as used to find solutions for the infamous game "Countdown"
Ok, here are my findings so far:
You can have the following different operators: +;-;*;/;_ (nothing, just chaining the digits to a bigger number);*- (multiply with the negative) and /- (divide by the negative). +- is just - and -- is just +. On 8 positions, that's 7^8=5.764.801 combinations, which should be pretty straightforward to implement (_ before * / *- /- before + -). Also the 1 can be negative, which doubles this.
Now to the brackets, which are the really difficult part about this: You could try to optimize it and put in all the rules so that you get all different possibilities, but only the necessary variants. But that's extremely difficult, because you could for example have multiple opening and/or closing brackets between two numbers, you can have a closing bracket, an operator and an opening bracket, but that not if the operator is _, because obviously you can't put two digits together to one number, but have it split with brackets. That would just be multiplication, we don't want that. Also you would want to exclude things like (1) or ((1+2)). And the more you think about it, the more can go wrong. So don't restrict the position of brackets too much. But what can you restrict? The total amount. In the worst case you might get something like 1-(2-(3-(4-(5-(6-(7-(8-9))))))), which are 7 pairs of brackets, but you can shorten that to 1-2+3-4+5-6+7-8+9. And I haven't found any combination yet that needs more than 4 brackets. So that's pretty reasonable. You can start a bracket from [before the 1] to [between 7 and 8] and end it after at least two numbers. So depending on how much effort you want to put into reducing the number of possibilities further, you can spend different amounts of time with that or let the computer do it. You could just (or I could, I want to do it, too) let the computer place four starting brackets at the 7 different positions and the ending brackets at the end positions >=2 after the opening one. That way you would also have the brackets linked and never have too many early closing brackets. And invalid cases like )_( it could just skip, there shouldn't be too many of those.
All that's left now is to program the actual operator evaluation, which should be a fun programming challenge unrelated to math(s). The limited amount of brackets should allow you to rearrange it as you need it before actually evaluating it. Maybe give every digit group a priority index? I don't know, I haven't thought about that too much yet.
I'm pretty sure that the brackets will make the number of possible combinations insanely high, so it might need some more optimizations to run in a reasonable time. I would keep my PC on for a week if that's definitely necessary, but I wouldn't want a full month. So if it takes too long, I would have to optimize further.
But... If the computer already runs that long... Why not save ALL the results and sort them? Then you have a complete index! It's a limited amount of possibilities anyway, you can't go to 10 or 11 (or A or B), because it's all base 10 based and the length is also limited. So we can make a complete table, not just a small one that this quoted person (whose name I forgot) made!
Geez that first paper you memorized!?! That's absolutely insane, I wouldn't be able to memorize even one column of one page!

“That is a mega plus, oh my goodness that is pretty plus”

Buddy, he wrote 100+ pages of more work than any of us are willing to think about
I really thought I had a cool new math trick to impress family and friends at boring parties. Turns out this wizard just remembered the combinations.
I'm thinking the 10958 problem could maybe be feasibly brute forced. The numbers stay the same it's basically just the mathematical instructions and brackets that are different and change the result. I can't imagine it being too difficult for a computer to calculate a list of all of the possibilities.
Technically yes. The possibilities are around 4⁸ but if we need brackets things can get out of hand quickly.
I'm kinda mad at this **** number. Why is it like this? Why does it exist in first place? Was it bullied in school? Maybe unloving parents..
How fascinating.
What could you possibly do with this information?!
The actual information is likely 99% useless as it's pretty abstract. But if the Indian dude has come up with a method for verifying that his calculations are the shortest possible root to get an answer and with just the resources available each time, that likely has some very useful applications in computing or quantum mechanics or something similar if it can be made into an algorithm in A.I. Sometimes we don't always have a full set of tools to do something or we don't use our tools in the most efficient way. This guy likely does a lot of useful maths too and this little party trick could be an offshoot of something massive he has worked on and solved. Peniscillin was an accidental discovery that came from just dicking about carelessly though so even not having a purpose in the outset can be amazingly useful in the end.
You could use it to focus on if you were in a back room of a pawn shop being abused by a policeman and his friend. It would take the edge off a bit
You never know. It can be applied to a computer algorithm to solve a significant problem that would otherwise be unsolvable. Just look at cyber security.

this guy remembered a whole thesis in 1-2 months, and I can even learn a paragraph for my french homework
That paper is one of the weirdest papers I have ever seen.
Correction: Those are the weirdest papers I have ever seen.
This makes me want to devote my entire life to finding 10,958
How’s it going?
Who's here before 10,958 views as well?!
Shiny Swalot me, I think anyone in the next day or so will be.
ErikCR and it's 10,957 not 10,956 lol.
Shiny Swalot muy!

Shiny Swalot 👋here!
Not sure if this is an acceptable solution due to the presence of a somewhat spurious 0th power on the eight term, but here goes anyway: [(1+2)^(3+4)]*5 + 6 + 7 + 8^0 + 9.
I guess it might be considered a near miss. If the rules regarding concatenation etc, were spelled out to us more clearly, then we might have a chance at a valid solution.
I didn't check your answer but I don't think u can use 0
:) Great work! (although probably somewhat out of bounds)
