Unless there is a rather large chance of winning (and a good profit in case of a win)

I am the escapist! I wouldn't place any bet in the first place!

Its not a log(cabin); its a natural log cabin...

I like TLAs more than other MLAs

Nope that's not it. Either I have mismodeled my problem, or the optimal solution wasn't as I had expected.
#8 Re: Help Me ! » Optimizing complicated function » 2016-10-11 00:40:20
Thanks for the numbers. No
? This could potentially mean oversimplification of the original problem... (which is err my problem)#9 Re: Help Me ! » Optimizing complicated function » 2016-10-09 23:03:26
I expected it to be around 25...
Thanks for the number to 20 places, but I really would have needed just 4 places. What about the
s? Actually, they might be more valuable for me...#10 Re: Help Me ! » Optimizing complicated function » 2016-10-09 18:58:13
Oops no I have no idea about the answer (that's why I posted the question in the first place) Numerical values would be nice...

Why aren't jokes in base 8 funny? Because 7 10 11!

Hello guys!

Here is the exact function..
...and I need to find its global MINIMA (the max is part of the function) subject to:
I hope this makes the problem more readable.
I think you might be confusing things even more. The max function is part of the function. Should I say:
and I need to minimize S?

This is the set of equations you'll need,
is the number of rounds you should survive with lives.Plugging into Wolfram|Alpha / pen+paper gives:

I guess you should accept that my head is a (not too good!) computer...

In fact postfix notation may just end all controversies over our conventional system, it is technically better than infix (at least for computers)

Tell that guy
"Please ask your question in reverse polish notation for unambiguous answers"
See if THAT drives him crazy... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation
#18 Re: Computer Math » Absorbing Markov Chains reloaded » 2016-10-08 22:51:54
Do we really need Markov chains for this problem? Plain algebra should be enough.

Does rotations/reflections count?

Oops sorry, I just need to find
such that the function is minimized. Also, I forgot to add in the constrains. Here are the constrains for copy-pasting:Pages: 1
