Rules
The next competition will begin at GMT 08:00 24/6/2017, which is about 24 hours later. By that time, a new post containing the question will be published.
You are welcome to solve the problem mathematically or programmatically.
A link to Google Form will be provided. This time you are invited to submit your mathematical proof (not a must) and your numerical answer (required). You must submit your answer through that Google Form to avoid cheating.
Participants can submit for unlimited number of times, however only the latest answer will be considered.
Participants who typed the answer in the comment section would be disqualified.
You have to upvote this post AND the question post in order to be eligible for the competition.
Prizes
The final SBD payout of this post would be the prize pool.
The first participant who gave the correct mathematical proof will get 25% of the prize pool. 5 other participants who attempted to provide the proof (do not try to write some trash though, I will exclude you from the lucky draw) will be randomly drawn and each of them will get 5% of the prize pool.
The first participant who gave the correct numerical answer will get 25% of the prize pool. 5 other participants who answered correctly will be randomly drawn and each of them will get 5% of the prize pool.

It is possible to win in both the mathematical proof award and numerical answer award!
If not all prizes are given out, they will be accumulated for the next competition.

This will also increase the prize pool! I would be more than happy if any whales are willing to sponsor our prize pool ;) If you wish to directly sponsor the prize pool instead of upvoting this post, please let me know, I can arrange for this.
