Did u jst get a mail or twas d mail of 13th March?

It was the 13th of February mail

timonski:

lie. I got 680. Now add 136. U get 826.

My bad, made wrong calculation.
The answer 680 then, 120 balls for small pyramid and 560 for the bigger one.

You still haven't answered my question. 'if 220 is the answer then what number was used for the small pyramid and what was used for the bigger one?'

I added these; 4+6+10+15+21+28+36+45+55+66+78+91+105+120 when you add all these you have 725.

A pyramid is made up of four triangular surface.

timonski:

No na. Those ones na typographical error.
See. You look for the difference between two small pyramids such that the difference itself can form a pyramid.
So our options are 1,3,6,10,... I.e
1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55. You see! 55-45=10. Gbam! So add 1;3;6 down to 55. That gives you 220. Lol.

You are still wrong. My answer 725 is correct. Just settle down and think about it, if 220 is the answer then what number was used for the small pyramid and what was used for the bigger one.

timonski:
this i s a tetrahedral pyramid. Not just an ordinary pyramid. The answer is actually 10.

timonski:
this i s a tetrahedral pyramid. Not just an ordinary pyramid. The answer is actually 47. Sorry hear.

timonski:
this i s a tetrahedral pyramid. Not just an ordinary pyramid. The answer is actually 10.

LOL, there is no answer to the question jare.

In short, your answer is wrong. LOL

Hope you know you can't have a pyramid with 30 balls or even 14balls

timonski:
.
There are 2 answers. 14 and 30. But based on the question 30 is more correct.:p

Okay. Although I don't understand.

For the steps, well well well, I just did it some how sha.

The number of balls needed for the smallest pyramid is 10, 20 for the next size, 35, 56, 84, 120,165, 220,.......... 605, 725....... and so on, using these 4+6+10+15+21+28........

120 and 605 are the only (maybe the first set of) numbers that will add up to another number in the sequence.
What's your answer? Am still waiting for my prize.

timonski:

Notice in the given example. 10 + 10 balls i.e 1+3+6 and 1+3+6 gave 20 balls i.e 1+3+6+10. Your job is to deduce an (algorithm) that can generate a pyramid using two unequal pyramids.

Really. I think I have gotten it now.

timonski:

Nice analysis. But you are still wrong. Notice the pattern with which the balls are placed, STRATUM by STRATUM

The answer is 725 balls, 120 balls from the smaller pyramid and 605 balls from the bigger pyramid.

Waiting for my prize, lol.

timonski:

Hehe. How did you get 46?

Sorry, yes 46 is wrong.
From what I understand, the smallest pyramid requires 10 balls, the next should be 19 balls, 31,46,........and so on.
It's not possible to make a bigger pyramid using all the balls from two smaller pyramids.

46

Tuesday.

I got shorlisted.....Thank you lord.

Chose Lagos Interview.... Early March

hariorh:


Simple

Not that simple. It didn't go through

samsown:
Hi everyone,

The interview was good, lasted just over an hour about 70 mins...the interviewer was nice but very professional.
All I did basically was give scenarios regarding the various attributes he asked about...mostly about challenges faced and how I was able to over come them because of something I did.

Can't say how well I did cos results is all that matter but I felt pretty good after the interview.

Regarding it being impromptu, it wasn't. Got a call on Wednesday, interview was scheduled for Friday morning.

I don't know anything about the recruitment process...didn't do anything special...basically submitted my application and went on with my life...I suggest we all do the same. if you get called prepare hard and do your best...if you don't move on...there's no point trying to figure out timelines and what not.

Stay positive...stay hopeful...keep moving.
Ciao!

Did your interview invite call come from a number starting with +802..... I'm asking because I missed a call from that number on Wednesday evening, and I wouldn't be bothered if not that the number called repeatedly. Twice, to be precise. Was it same number that called you?

TheCode:


Exactly. As if we can't handle a little heat. Unless the objective is to make the thread go cold, should pls allow the thread flow. Should we commence a #BringBackOurPosts campaign? The posts to be deleted should be posts reported to the , not any post the doesn't like. This is our thread, not the 's.

Cc. seun, davide470

I feel quite irritated to refresh and not see some people's post again or at times, mine. Its more like you are in a house where your parent are always monitoring your every step.

Im slightly disappointed tho. I had always thought nairaland was a little freer.

Ashmark:
People don't talk about waiting for mail again...Is it that everybody has received regret mail. This thread didn't need to go cold like this...

Please guys, u can continue with the argument I beg

How possible, when quickly removes every little bit of emerging argument or tension.
