this the answer: n!=n(n-1)(n-2)*........3*2*1
=n(n-1)!.....so if we put n=1, then 1!=1*0! and 1!=1
so,therefore, 1!/1=0!...therefore0!=1...i hope i get it.
o ya na say something nah....or give us d solution @smurfy,factorial i think u guys are corect o bt i don't knw wat boss benbuks will say o.
Re: Nairaland Math Quiz Winner l::::::JARYEH::::::l by Nobody: 1:24pm On Nov 15, 2013
Ok , here is the proof.
P!= p(p-1)(p-2)! x . . . 3 x 2 x 1
also
p!= (p+1)!/p+1

e.g 2! =3!/3=2
1!=2!/2=1

hence
0!=1!/1=1 q.e.d.

Re: Nairaland Math Quiz Winner l::::::JARYEH::::::l by Richiez(m): 1:49pm On Nov 15, 2013
There'll be two more rounds, round 4 tagged 'The last screening' and the round 5 which is the finals

The Quiz will have to be postponed because today's time is already far spent and round 4 has been planned to be the longest round.

My dear participants there are now two dates before us to continue with round 4. Either saturday or monday.

To ease the weary minds of participants caused by my network's inconsistency, participants will choose the between the two dates and a convenient time. Quiz masters alphamaximus and doubledx will then review their choices and post a suitable date and time for the round 4 on this thread.

Thanks everyone for your understanding.

Keep the fire burning.

Richiez's computer has got glitches smiley

Nice rhyme.
Re: Nairaland Math Quiz Winner l::::::JARYEH::::::l by AlphaMaximus(m): 1:50pm On Nov 15, 2013
Due to some unforseen network impediments being faced by Richiez, it was concluded that the quiz would be postponed till 10.00am tomorrow. Normally,Doubledx and I would have carried on the torch and proceeded without Richiez but this would not have been effective due to the fact that all the work would have been concentrated on me due to Doubledx's absence and Richiez internet issue. If tomorrow isn't a convenient time for majority of the competitors, then we the co-ordinators will postpone the event till next week Monday. If you are in support of having the quiz tomorrow, post 'AYE', if you oppose, post 'NAY'. Thank you.

tomorrow is alright by me...
Re: Nairaland Math Quiz Winner l::::::JARYEH::::::l by Richiez(m): 2:15pm On Nov 15, 2013
Alright! MONDAY it is!!!
All 10 participants should get ready cos we'll adhere strictly to time.

Let me give a little hint on how round 4 will be conducted.

We have a set of questions numbered 1-20
Each participant will choose a number, and will answer the question along with other participants.

This means 10 questions will be answered in round 4. Therefore we have to stick strictly to time.

Remember, it is the last screening before the final round.

There'll be a mix of questions ranging from trigonometry to calculus to probability to algebraa and all the rest.

Once again, I'd advice everyone to keep the fire burning!!!

We are looking at ...at most 5 participants in the final round.

Enjoy the weekend in a mathematical fashion
