Find solution
What Is Mathematics?

How do I learn mathematics? What should I learn to be able to solve all problems involving any kind of mathematics?

  • There are some topics in competitive programming like combinatorics, probability; and few problems involve nothing other than mathematics. Many problems in competitive programming are dependent on Maths and only maths than programming skills. Most of them are related to combinatorics, permutations and combinations. What books should I read, what should I do to be able to solve any problem based on maths? I find combinatorics problem quite difficult. What material should I refer to overcome my problem! Thanking you in advance, please help!

  • Answer:

    You can visit http://brilliant.org for some high quality maths and programming questions to boost your skills. You can focus more on the combinatorics category on this website. Thanks for the A2A.
