I’ll be honest, I cleaned up the equation into a similar format, saw it was some elliptic curve thing and said to myself “this is where I’d send it to a computer”, but obviously the solution is so large I doubt it wins be easily to numerically derive.
The solution is easy. Blocks Community
Is this one of those problems that looks trivially easy to solve but has actually been an open problem in math for centuries and drives all who attempt it to inevitable madness?
Getting a real “Collatz” vibe from this
There is a solution. It’s just 80 digits long. I added it to the OP in the spoiler.
Rad! Are there solutions for all numbers, I wonder? Or just 4?
ETA: I found at least one solution that works for 2. (1, 1, 3)
Yeah based on the graphical description in the linked post there probably are other solutions. But I don’t think it would work for all integer.
The positive values are calories, fructose and citric acid
Yes.
Is this Lemmy thread too small to contain it?
Too small to contain what?
The “truly marvelous” solution :)
Edit: Wait, was your “yes” a response to the question in the image or the question in the title?
In the title.
Ah, I see.
Yup 🙂
7, 14, 79 comes pretty close. 35, 132, 627 are even closer.
