The difficulty of Ali Mathematics Competition is introduced as follows:

It is difficult for Chinese college students to get high marks in the math contest and Putnam math contest within the specified time, but if those who do well in the exam do this problem for one day, most of them will get high marks.

If you attach a condition, that is, open the book, many guys can get full marks in one day.

Alibaba's preliminaries will take three days, and it is still open-book, allowing the use of software. However, it is still difficult to reach a score of more than 30 in the end. Of the more than 700 finalists, half did not reach 60 points (full score 100). The final is more difficult than the preliminaries, and the time is shortened to 8 hours. Many finalists may only get a single digit or even a zero even after learning relevant knowledge.

Alibaba Global Mathematics Competition, jointly organized by China Association for Science and Technology, Alibaba Public Welfare Foundation and Alibaba Dharma Institute, is a competition, training and exchange for mathematics lovers all over the world, aiming at leading the world to pay attention to, understand, appreciate and help the scientific and technological fashion of mathematics.

Global mathematics enthusiasts can register through official website of Ali Dharma Institute. This year's competition system is the same as last year, and the total prize money is still as high as 4 million yuan.
