The uncracked problem with 33

What it does

This is a Citizen Mathematician challenge I found on the youtube channel Numberphile

How I built it

I don't even know how to do it yet.

Challenges I ran into

My coding was a bit rusty so I joined www.hackerrank.com I'm most active on 'Project Euler' My number theory was a bit rusty, so I asked my alma mater, Victory University of Wellington, for help. They didn't know about The uncracked problem with 33, but 'Project Euler', and fixed me up with some advice and a few good books (that I probably should return soon, sorry) My computing resources are a bit too limited, but thanks to our sponsor AWS, I should at least be able to get started. Also shoutouts to Catalyst IT, and my best friend (for some more free credits and for giving me a few ARM cores, respectively).

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I got a bit carried away on www.hackerrank.com My handle is Diophant and my world ranking was around 150, but do look for yourself (registration may be required)

What I learned

Asking for help gets amazing results. It's a bad idea to uninstall Network Manager on a server you're sshing into.

What's next for The uncracked problem with 33
