AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on solving a pattern inductive reasoning problem involving a sequence of colored triangles within a hexagon. The key to solving such problems lies in systematic pattern recognition, which can be developed through practice. Participants emphasize the importance of identifying potential patterns and testing them against the given elements. The problem is categorized as an IQ test, suggesting it is designed to assess cognitive abilities, but it is also considered learnable with the right approach. Understanding the arrangement of colors in the triangles is crucial for completing similar tasks efficiently during exams.

In attempting to finish the sequence, I realized that the triangles in the inner hexagon is decolored in the direction of the arrow I drew for the given elements of the sequence. Any tips on how to think systematically about similar problems since I am required in the exam to complete like problems within a minute and half.

It's pure pattern recognition. It's supposed to be in the category of IQ test, but its definitely learnable because step one is to go through a list of possible patterns and checking for each one.
If you want to see more of this pattern, look at all of the white triangles and which colors appear in which squares.
What's this test for?
 

Thread 'Non-orthogonal bases'

Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
