We are halfway through summer, so be sure to carve out some time to keep your skills sharp and explore challenging topics at AoPS Online and our AoPS Academies (including the Virtual Campus)!

[list][*]Over 60 summer classes are starting at the Virtual Campus on July 7th - check out the math and language arts options for middle through high school levels.
[*]At AoPS Online, we have accelerated sections where you can complete a course in half the time by meeting twice/week instead of once/week, starting on July 8th:
[list][*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics
[*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced
[*]AMC Problem Series[/list]
[*]Plus, AoPS Online has a special seminar July 14 - 17 that is outside the standard fare: Paradoxes and Infinity
[*]We are expanding our in-person AoPS Academy locations - are you looking for a strong community of problem solvers, exemplary instruction, and math and language arts options? Look to see if we have a location near you and enroll in summer camps or academic year classes today! New locations include campuses in California, Georgia, New York, Illinois, and Oregon and more coming soon![/list]

MOP (Math Olympiad Summer Program) just ended and the IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad) is right around the corner! This year’s IMO will be held in Australia, July 10th - 20th. Congratulations to all the MOP students for reaching this incredible level and best of luck to all selected to represent their countries at this year’s IMO! Did you know that, in the last 10 years, 59 USA International Math Olympiad team members have medaled and have taken over 360 AoPS Online courses. Take advantage of our Worldwide Online Olympiad Training (WOOT) courses
and train with the best! Please note that early bird pricing ends August 19th!

Should I do Introduction to Geometry before Algebra B without any previous algeb
Disjunction   5
N Today at 1:23 AM by jb2015007
At AoPS, I’ve taken Intro to C&P and Intro to NT, but no algebra courses.

The Introduction to Geometry class starts July 22, whereas the Introduction to Algebra B course starts August 7.

Would it be harmful to do Introduction to Geometry before Algebra B without any previous algebra courses, or is it fine?

No the "Expected behavior:" is for what you think should happen instead of this error. Also why is this a bug of any kind???

how did you get here?

also I would assume they were supposed to describe every error cause, SystemExit likely being one of them that should be included

You can have a system.exit error for anything. So how should you describe it in the description/To fix.

There should not be a Description and To Fix in a system exit. Or the description should simply be about what the system exit does.

AoPS Python is made in JS, correct.

But, AoPS Python is a program made in JS, so it does not make much sense to move the remark upstream, in my personal opinion.
