(TEAM CONTEST) – JUNIOR & SENIOR LEVEL<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Mathematics as an expression of the human mind reflects the active will, the contemplative reason, and the desire for aesthetic perfection. Its basic elements are logic and intuition, analysis and construction, generality, and individuality. So, if you really like exercising your brain, figuring things round and round till your mind explodes, then ‘Mathmania’ is a competition for you. Mathmania is not just a competition but a plethora of Greek symbols, interlaced with numbers, which makes it seem like a clandestine code which must be deciphered. The real magic of this competition lies not with its method of execution, but its definite solutions founded on irrefutable proofs. So, get ready to be a part of Mathmania.<\/span><\/p>\n
