Original in Hungarian; translated with Google translate; polished by myself.

Let $f: [0, \infty) \to [0, \infty)$ be a function that is linear between adjacent integers, and for $n = 0, 1, \dots$ satisfies
$$f(n) = \begin{cases} 0, & \textrm{if }2\mid n,\\4^l + 1, & \textrm{if }2 \nmid n, 4^{l - 1} \leq n < 4^l(l = 1, 2, \dots).\end{cases}$$Let $f^1(x) = f(x)$, and $f^k(x) = f(f^{k - 1}(x))$ for all integers $k \geq 2$. Determine the values of $\liminf\nolimits_{k\to\infty}f^k(x)$ and $\limsup\nolimits_{k\to\infty}f^k(x)$ for almost all $x \in [0, \infty)$ under Lebesgue measure.

(Not sure whether the last sentence translates correctly; the original:
Határozzuk meg Lebesgue majdnem minden $x\in [0, \infty)$-re a $\liminf\nolimits_{k\to\infty}f^k(x)$ és $\limsup\nolimits_{k\to\infty}f^k(x)$ értékét.)

Processing module python not working
Demetri   11
N Jul 8, 2025 by PikaPika999
The following code doesn't work, because canvas isn't implemented for the processing module:
import processing
def setup():
    processing.size(200, 200)
def draw():
    processing.ellipse(100, 100, 50, 50)
    processing.noLoop()
processing.run()

I believe this is an easy fix, someone just forgot to add the line "Sk.canvas = outcanvas;"(or something similar) in the code for the pywindow, which would give an output.

3. Click the "Reply" button, not the quick reply bar.

4. Type a reply.

5. Push the "Submit" button.

6. Try to scroll down. if you’re lucky, the problem will reproduce.

-----Expected behavior:
To scroll all the way down.


-----Frequency:
Almost every time I push the big "Reply" button, sometimes (but rarely) when I push the "Quick Reply" bar.

macOS Sequoia 15.4.1

Chrome, (I don't know what version)

Recently, I have been experiencing an issue where i can't type into the boxes that professors post during a lesson. I can't input an answer and i've tried refreshing multiple times and it doesn't work. This has happened in many lessons in a row. Please help! Also, is there a way to make Aops dark mode?

If you open a PM, specify yourself, and put something there, then hit send, it says you are automatically included and if you want to talk to yourself, leave the to box blank. If you leave the box blank, it won't send the PM because the to box is blank

k I've been wrongfully disabled
K124659   5
N Jul 5, 2025 by K124659
Summary of the problem: My alcumus account has been "banned"
Page URL: Anywhere on alcumus
Steps to reproduce (I reccomend you don't):
1. Answer questions extremely quickly whilst spamming the enter button
Expected behavior: You'll get banned. I believe this is some sort of system to disable bots.
Frequency: I'm not sure.
Operating system(s): Acer 311 Chromebook
Browser(s), including version: Google Chrome
Additional information: I believe this is due to the fact that I knew most of the questions either by heart or because they are extremely easy (It was multiplying fractions in pre-algebra that got me banned), and as a result I was going too fast and was spamming inputs into the system, similar to a bot. I wasn't using a bot, however. I'm not even grinding HOF- I had broken record as a quest with my problem streak being 399 previously, so my usage of the same subject to get a bunch correct was lowk necessary ngl.

k Searching for keywords
Cats_on_a_computer   1
N Jul 4, 2025 by Demetri
Quick question because I’m new here, I keep searching keywords in the community search functions to check if they’ve been posted before, and every time it ended up not finding the original, leading to a repost. This has happened so many times I’ve decided not to post anymore until I can somehow find a way to efficiently search for it.
I accidentally reposted a Putnam 2006, even though I searched for the keywords in the question, but since I didn’t know it was a Putnam problem (I had seen it somewhere else), I didn’t manage to find the problem so unknowingly reposted it.
