Maybe it was because he didn't have any hope cup in his previous life, Hao Yun touched his conscience and spoke, he really didn't feel anything about this trophy, and even the initial registration was decided under the lure of Dean Li Guoping.

However......

He always felt that he had misunderstood something when he said that.

After the interview, Hao Yun always felt that something was wrong, so he explained his thoughts to Dean Li Guoping, hoping that he would help clarify with the people from the TV station.

However, he didn't expect that the old guy didn't intend to listen at all, so he waved his hand and comforted him.

"Don't worry too much, it's not a big problem, not to mention that I think about it and think that what you said is quite right, there is really no need to take a hope cup too seriously, it's not something that can be done with hands? Our Jiang University is full of talents, and when we walk outside, we should straighten our waists, and we can't be flattened by the young men from Xia Keda next to us! ”

"What does this have to do with Xia Keda?" Hao Yun said with a smile.

"What does it matter? Heh," Dean Li Guoping snorted coldly, his tone was neither salty nor light, but the corners of his mouth couldn't hide the pleasure of revenge, "When they won the championship last year, they didn't forget to squeeze us." ”

Boy.

It's a scorpio again.

Hao Yun sighed in his heart with a smile and decided not to dwell on this matter anymore......

……

Hope for the week after the Cup final.

Shanghai, the meeting room of Xiadong Normal University.

The Group of Experts has reached its third round.

Yang Fengyuan, a scholar from the School of Computer Science of Xiadong Normal University, has made new progress in his research.

"It's very interesting that a few days ago, I tried the square root reciprocal algorithm with a supercomputer using the method of traversal, and the result was that after 140 million operations, the best value I got was 0x5f37642f."

"I thought this result would be closer to being precise than the 0x5f375a86 proposed by contestant 101, which is the 'magic number', but the result of bringing in Newton's iterative algorithm was beyond my expectations...... The results I got through the supercomputing traversal are a little bit worse in terms of accuracy? ”

Speaking of this, Yang Feng said in a low voice with a ghostly expression on his face.

"It's not entirely impossible, because the possibilities are endless. But in an hour, he actually found a hexadecimal number that was more reliable than supercomputing...... If it's a coincidence, it's hell ahead. ”

While it might be more hellish if it weren't for the coincidence, it would at least be a little more convincing.

Professor Jia Yuxin, another number theory research expert from the Xia National Institute of Mathematics, suddenly spoke.

“0x5f37642f？ Wait a minute, I calculated the same result as you, but I didn't use supercomputing, but a linear approximation to take the optimal value...... Purely mathematical. ”

Yang Feng Courtyard Scholar: "...... A purely mathematical approach? ”

"That's right," Professor Jia Yuxin smiled wryly, also with a ghostly expression, "theoretically my method should be quite reliable, although there are still many things that are difficult to explain." I then brought 0x5f37642f into the algorithm, but no matter how I executed the Newton's iterative algorithm, the exact value was a little worse than the 'magic number'...... I was amazed. ”

"Can I see the process?" Academician Zhan Yongshu hurriedly asked.

Although he is not a professional mathematician, information engineering also requires a mathematical foundation after all, and there is no problem in understanding it.

Professor Jia Yuxin nodded, took out a thick stack of documents from the file bag he was carrying, handed them to his assistant who came to the meeting with him, and motioned for him to send them down.

"Of course, I'm getting ready to send my research results out to everyone! I can safely say that the results are very interesting...... I forgot to eat dinner yesterday. ”

got a stack of paper papers, and before Professor Zhang Cunhao had time to read the specific content, he couldn't help but say as soon as he saw the title at the beginning.

“…… Is the primitive constant mathematically derived or is it obtained through trial and error? What is it? ”

"Of course, it's the title of the paper, by the way, this is my latest paper......" Speaking of this, Professor Jia Yuxin also smiled embarrassedly and continued, "Of course, it hasn't been published yet, just for everyone to see." ”

After all, the results of the competition have not yet been released, and a paper based on such unpublished results is obviously not suitable for publication, otherwise it is plagiarism.

However, if it is not publicly announced, there is no problem in circulating it privately within the scope of those in the know.

As for why I wrote this paper in advance and brought it to this conference table, on the one hand, it was indeed because I couldn't help but see this interesting topic, and on the other hand, it was because I was afraid that these peers would take the lead.

Sure enough, halfway through his words, he received at least three blank eyes.

However, after seeing these three white eyes, Professor Jia, who was full of smiles, put his heart at ease.

Academician Zhan Yongshu didn't think about it so much, and at his age and status, he didn't need to publish papers to maintain his academic status, and it was precisely because of this that he would shift his focus to education in the past two years.

After reading the paper, Academician Zhan frowned slightly and continued.

"It's really interesting...... Although there is still no explanation as to how this figure came about. ”

The experts sitting at the conference table also nodded.

Is the primitive constant mathematically derived or is it obtained through trial and error?

Professor Jia Yuxin's paper is at most an introduction, which is good at the beginning of a research topic, but it is still far from the end.

"There are no results in three rounds of meetings, and I am afraid that this problem will be difficult to solve in a short time," after reading the paper, Yang Feng Yuan Scholar sighed softly, "Unless the results of the competition are disclosed to the academic community, and then discussed by many scholars." ”

Hearing this, Academician Zhan Yongshu also nodded in agreement.

Indeed, as Academician Yang said, this conference room gathers the most knowledgeable minds in the fields of mathematics and informatics. While they are not necessarily the smartest, they are certainly experienced.

However, even so, after three rounds of meetings, they could not find a suitable explanation for how this figure was calculated, which only means that the problem should not be discussed in the conference room, but should be placed in the research topic of repeated reflection in the laboratory.

I believe that as long as there is enough time, they will definitely find the answer.

"I agree with Academician Yang's point of view, and the symposium on 0x5f375a86 will end here."

After a pause, Academician Zhan Yongshu stood up and continued in a serious tone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we must now consider a more serious issue."

"That's about the winner of this year's Hope Cup."

It's been a week since the competition, and all the entries have been reviewed by the main judging committee

Now, even if there is controversy, the focus of the controversy is on how the number came about, not on the value of the magic number itself.

There was silence in the conference room for a while.

"I vote for No. 101, and the answers he submitted, both for subjective and objective evaluations, were excellent."

"Seconded! Although his answer is simple, isn't the art of informatics the simplification of complex problems? ”

"I agree with that, at least so far, I haven't seen anything more impressive."

Professor Zhang Cunhao did not speak, and seemed to be hesitating his choice.

Yang Feng didn't express any opinions, as if he felt that this issue didn't need to be discussed at all, but just wrote his choice on the voting card, and then got up and left the conference room.

Looking at the situation in the conference room, Academician Zhan Yongshu nodded with a slight smile.

"It seems that everyone is surprisingly unanimous."

There seemed to be no suspense at all about the title, and that was exactly what he expected.

The Hope Cup has been held for so many sessions, and he has been a member of the main examination committee for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen which answer actually makes the entire main examination committee at a loss.

If such an answer is not worthy of the glory of the championship.

That's a loss for the Cup of Hope!
