At this moment, Hao Yun was wandering around the mall, completely unaware of what kind of storm his answer had set off.

Until, he received a call from Professor Li Guoping......

"You've already handed in your papers?"

"That's right, I'm shopping, I don't know what souvenirs to buy and bring back," Hao Yun replied with a smile, suddenly thought of something, and asked strangely, "Wait, how do you know that I have finished the exam?" ”

"I don't just know that you're done with the exam, I even know what the answer you handed in is." Dean Li Guoping said with a smile, "You kid can, how did you come up with the idea of modifying the underlying function code?" I've been the dean for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen such a sassy operation. ”

It's okay to operate like this......

Hao Yun coughed dryly and said, "Isn't there no other way?" I can't understand the other three questions, the only one I can understand is the fourth question, and as a result, there is nothing to change after flipping through the code, so I thought to see which function call is more, can I simplify the calculation of the number of steps......"

"And then you found the function that squared the inverted?" Dean Li Guoping asked curiously, "Why is this function?" ”

"Because the 3D engine calls this function a lot when executing screen loading," Hao Yun sighed helplessly and continued, "Then I tried to change a few parameters, and found that the impact on the guessed value was quite large, so I thought to see if I could find a 'precise' enough number to make the guessed value obtained by the algorithm as close to the final answer as possible...... Luckily, I found the number after half an hour or an hour of trying. ”

"The 0x5f375a86?"

"Yes," Hao Yun nodded, asking strangely, "Is there anything wrong with this method?" ”

"There's no problem, it's better to say that the method you came up with is simply ......amazing," Professor Li Guoping sighed with emotion and continued, "I finally understand now, why Dean Wang Shuangquan is so worried about you, and he doesn't hesitate to bet with me to find a way to let me help you do the ideological work of the college." ”

What's that?

Bet?

Hao Yun looked confused, hesitated for a while, and then asked tentatively, "Do you also suggest that I transfer to the hospital?" ”

However, what Hao Yun didn't expect was that before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Dean Li Guoping.

I saw that the old man snorted, although he couldn't see his expression through the phone, Hao Yun knew that his eyes must be round.

"You dare!"

It seemed that he felt that his tone was a little too impulsive, and when he came back to his senses, he quickly changed his tone, and continued with a smile in a kind tone, "No, I didn't mean that, I mean, who dares to let you transfer to the hospital?" I'll cut him for you! ”

Hao Yun: "......"

didn't notice Hao Yun's speechlessness, or pretended not to notice, Dean Li Guoping smiled and praised it: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it!" I used to only think that you kid was a talent, but I didn't expect you to be a talent, you are a genius! In this way, you don't have to rush back, I helped you book a hotel on the Bund, you can have a good time in Shanghai for the past two days, and then go back together when your three brothers and sisters come out! ”

"Hotels? Which hotel? Hao Yun was stunned and asked.

"W on the Bund!" Dean Li Guoping smiled embarrassedly, "Don't worry, this time it's a five-star rating!" What do you think? Interesting enough, right? ”

Hao Yun, who was holding his mobile phone, had a strange expression. Although I don't know what kind of nerves Dean Li has, what he means by listening to him is ...... Is this an upgrade in treatment?

Is it so realistic?

Out of curiosity, Hao Yun hung up the phone and went to check the house price on the Internet.

Good guys, the basic room type costs more than 2,000 a night?! If you want to live for 800 yuan, if you want to go in for a night, I'm afraid you will have to add a group to fight for a knife.

Turning off the screen of his mobile phone, recalling the momentary change in Dean Li's attitude, Hao Yun felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Is this the power of knowledge?

Loved, loved......

……

I wandered around for a long time, but I didn't buy anything.

Hao Yun thought that there should be a place to shop on the edge of the Bund, so he went back to the suburbs first.

I went upstairs to get my luggage, and the room card was left directly on the table.

Hao Yun, who got off the elevator, happened to see a group of reporters blocking the front desk of the lobby, as if they were arguing about something.

Did you get a star to check in?

But listening to Senior Brother Zhou's words, this is an express hotel, right? Is there really a celebrity living in this kind of place?

Hao Yun thought so in his heart, and didn't go up to join in the fun, but took an online taxi at the door and left.

It's just that before getting in the car, he seemed to vaguely hear a sentence -

"Are you sure that the contestant lives here? What the? That's what is written on the registration information of the player's accommodation address? Damn, isn't that just a random fill-in? ”

Hao Yun: "......"

Player?

I always feel like I've just passed by something very troublesome......

In fact, Hao Yun's feeling was very accurate.

At about half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, a group of experts organized from the Department of Mathematics of Xia Dong Normal University had gathered in the conference room of the laboratory building not far from the gymnasium.

Although the answers submitted by the contestants nominally need to be kept secret before the end of the competition, the main examination committee has already turned to the Xia Academy of Sciences and the Xia Institute of Mathematics for help, and many of the experts sitting here are big names in the Xia mathematics community, and they have some connections with these domestic research institutions.

"Modify the algorithm of the underlying function? It's the first time I've seen such an interesting idea," Professor Wu Haiyang from Xiadong Normal University sighed lightly after reading the answers in the computer, "I can only say that he is a master!" I just tried a dozen numbers, not to mention comparing them with the numbers he replaced, and I couldn't do better than the previous ones. ”

"Incredible...... Is there any math to this? ”

"I feel like it's a complete guess, and no one has studied this as a subject before. I suggest that we can use supercomputing to study, and follow this line of thinking, and we can't find a more 'usable' number than this 0x5f375a86. ”

The person who put forward this opinion was Yang Fengyuan, a scholar from the School of Computer Science of Xiadong Normal University.

Shanghai has the most advanced supercomputer in the entire Xia Kingdom and even the People's Federation, and he doesn't know much about this kind of esoteric mathematical problem, so his first thought is to use brute force to verify this conjecture.

The professors sitting at the conference table looked at each other and thought that this method was really worth trying.

I said...... Rather than discuss it here, let's talk to the person who came up with the answer, who surely knows better than you and me sitting here how this number came to be. Where is this player now? Give him a call," suggested a dignified professor.

This proposal has been approved by many people, but Professor Zhang Cunhao, who was sitting at the conference table, said with an embarrassed face.

"I'm afraid this is not very convenient."

"Why??"

"Because there are still two hundred and sixty-nine players sitting in the examination room," Academician Zhan Yongshu replied with a serious face, "This involves the principle of fairness. ”

Hearing this, there was silence at the conference table.

Indeed, it is a question of fairness.

There is no problem for the main examination committee to meet on its own, even if the problem that cannot be solved is submitted to the Xia Academy of Sciences for repeated study by experts, there is no problem, which is not without precedent in previous competitions.

However, no matter how it is discussed, even if the judges involved in the scoring can openly talk about their opinions at the meeting, everything can only be based on internal communication, and no one of the participants should be involved.

It's like taking an exam.

Before the scores are released, the examinee and the reviser must not have any contact.

Especially in this kind of competition where subjective opinions are a very important component, not to mention that the scoring results have not come out now, and even many contestants have not left the arena, you just pull a contestant and the scoring judge into a group to chat about their views on the work, how will the score be played at that time?

"I'll have to wait three days......"

An old professor sitting at the conference table sighed.

It's really tormenting......
