I couldn't solve x^x^x=2, so I solved x^x^(x+1)=2 instead

Thank you all!

[blackpenredpen]

so you want both solutions to 2^x-3x-1=0 (not regular algebra)

[IoT_]

It can solve it numerically. The truth is "it cannot interpret the input" as it's written on your screenshot. If you explicitly write the expression using the parenthesis, it will solve it.

I don’t fear the math, I fear the amount of marker boxes he has in the back

[henridelagardere]

This video starts a bit fishy but ends up as yet another great catch by our favorite problem solver.

[TelPerson]

Nice video as always! Now I'll be glad if you try to solve this equation:

x^x^(x+2) = 2

It can not be solved by using LambertW function, but it is solvable in terms of superroot! So I hope this experience will be interesting for you!

[Christian_Martel]

I’m always looking forward to listen the usual: « And you take your fish back! » Thank you Coach Bprp!

[neilgerace]

When you get the green marker out, things are getting serious. Because you have reached the scenario of the four colour map problem :)

4:20 Lembedari function of the Lembedari function 😂

[mpperfidy]

I always enjoy your videos, but I think my favorites are the ones where you make stuff up (like the fish) to keep your viewers from getting confused by yet another variable. Placeholders for the win.

[thegamer-ndpv]

Nice job👍 have never seen the terms ln and e being manipulated in that sort of way. I had also never seen the lambertw function before as something that is similar to a natural logarithm.

[ElOroDelTigre]

With your videos I will eventually unlock the secrets of the numerical universe. But I'll never be able to answer the primordial question: why do happy-faced fish have horns?

[pentachu]

As a law student that just likes math I have no idea what just happened. I'm just happy for the fish

[r-setizs]

So how start the mathematics ofline classes by you my dear Sir??

[Markv]

I have an idea for when one takes the Lambert function of a Lambert function: The Lamborghini function, noted by the picture of a sleek car instead of a letter like "W".

[SwordQuake]

The Lambert W is always such a cop-out...

[berkaymeral]

I'm wondering how to solve an equation written as a^x=(x+b)(x+c) b≠c. Could you please make a video about it? Love from Turkey 🇹🇷

[cyrusthagreat]

Hey blackpenredpen, can you tetrate i to the length of i? Like i with an exponent tower of i's that is i long.

[mattmantheredknight]

Is there any difference between x^(x^(x+1)) = 2 and x^((x+1)^(x)) = 2?

[royehoffman]

To solve x^x^x=a, you need to invent a new function similar to the Lambert W function: such that X(ye^ye^y)=y
