Sure it will be more competitive, but I think the mechanics (how air dodges work for example) will be more similar to brawl. There will just be more balance and a little more speed. That's my educated guess based on things I have read and seen so far.

Well, we will largely be able to see for ourself by watching the stream of that event. Am pumped. (Don't expect it to be that similar to melee though, it will be closer to brawl mechanically IMO, just hopefully better.)

Yeah, and some top melee pros are playing in that invitational event at E3 which will be sick.

If you want to play smash online, project 64k is good for ssb64 and dolphin is good for both melee and brawl :). Just get a usb controller, or an adapter if you absolutely need to play with a GC controller.

If ssb4 is good (I have high standards in this regard)/ has decent online I will get one just for it.

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level You have constructed one polynomial to make your life easier, why not another? Make the substitution x->x+2 after your first construction and you have a polynomial with roots rj^2-2. You don't even need to expand it to compute what the question is...

Ah it does indeed say quadratic there, I didn't read that far before.

Cheers, exactly what I was looking for...it turns out it is quadratic interpolation (with modifications in special cases.)

Yeah this is the kind of ambiguity I mean, some proportion of the MX1 course will have MX2 as their other subject, the complement will have Mathematics as their other subject. How does one fairly compare such tied candidates?

Yep, I remember reading that now. As I say, quite opaque as to the actual mechanism though.

Thanks for your response and links, I do wish the process was a little more transparent. I am still not convinced that there aren't other differentiating factors between ranking students, (as you say you have heard, and others have said too etc) but that looks like a pretty clear explanation of...

If you come first internally and externally (at your school), is your internal "mark" equal to your exam mark? If not, does someone know (precisely!) how your internal "mark" is calculated based on your position in the spread of internal and external marks at your school in this subject? (and...

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level Ah right, all good then.

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level I don't think this is actually known to be true or false. Eg (x^2+1)^2 is reducible over the integers, but it is not known (and regarded to be a rather difficult problem) whether or not there are infinitely many primes of the form n^2+1. We only...

Re: MX2 Integration Marathon Good work, but notice that your working depends on k being an integer. So you have only proven the claim for intervals like [7T,8T] or [-3T,-2T], but not for intervals like [1.5T,2.5T]. (The notation [a,b] refers to the closed interval a =< x =< b)

Re: MX2 Integration Marathon A function defined on the reals is said to be T-periodic if f(x+T)=f(x) for all x. (T is a positive real number). Show that the integral of a continuous T-periodic function over ANY interval of length T is the same.

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level Your recurrence is right, but your solution to it wasn't. Don't drink and derive! (But actually do, it is the best.)

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level I got: \frac{1}{4}\left(1+3\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)^n\right) Notice that the answer should be 0 for n=1.

Just go to the classes and do other work in them. You will kill the exams without even taking them seriously so who cares? My school made me do 2U up till trials although it was fairly clear I wasn't going to drop 4U.

Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon - Advanced Level Yep.
