17-year-old math genius girl enters the world's top 12

Jiang Ping is from Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province. She is a student of Jiangsu Lianshui Secondary Vocational School, majoring in fashion design. Since junior high school, Jiang Ping's math performance has been particularly outstanding, far ahead of other subjects. When others could only write "Solution:" on the last big question, she could find the idea with just a glance. When doing math homework, she is also more willing to do difficult questions. "It brings me the desire to explore," Jiang Ping said. Mathematics is like her friend. "When the problem is solved, I am very happy. When it cannot be solved, it will be very painful."


At that time, parents and teachers told Jiang Ping "Don't be biased" and "The college entrance examination is not just about mathematics." Later, due to various factors, Jiang Ping, who was originally admitted to an ordinary high school, came to a junior college. In school, she only had to study "Chinese, mathematics, and foreign languages" and clothing professional courses. She had plenty of spare time to get along with mathematics quickly. The middle school textbooks were far from enough for Jiang Ping, and her far-leading mathematics scores also attracted the attention of mathematics teacher Wang Runqiu.

Jiang Ping recalled that she would find it difficult to learn advanced mathematics at the beginning. For example, she would try to draw a drawing problem on a piece of paper, and then keep changing her mind to solve the problem. She thought that she was not particularly good at permutations and combinations. When she encountered difficulties, she often asked mathematics teacher Wang Runqiu for help. Under Wang Runqiu's guidance, Jiang Ping began to learn from "Advanced Mathematics" and "Mathematical Analysis" to the foreign language version of "Partial Differential Equations". With the help of mobile phone translation software and "English-Chinese Small Dictionary", she has self-taught one-third. Now, she has reached the level of third and fourth grade undergraduates in mathematics.

This participation in the global mathematics competition was a surprise for Jiang Ping. Wang Runqiu told her that there was no threshold for the competition and encouraged her to give it a try. At first, Jiang Ping had little confidence. She quietly went through last year's competition questions and signed up with the mentality of giving it a try. During the two days of the preliminaries, she spent all her time answering questions except for eating and sleeping, just to prove that she could do it. In the end, she successfully entered the finals.

How many years behind China is India's per capita GDP of $2500?

I have seen this set of data: looking at the export value of goods, India lags behind China by 17 years; Looking at the total amount of foreign exchange reserves, India lags behind China by 19 years; Compared to the actual amount of foreign direct investment utilized by the two countries, India is only equivalent to China from 2003 to 2004, lagging behind by 20 years. Observing the research patents of China and India, India lags behind China by at least 21 years. The authenticity of these values has not been verified by Nansheng and is for your reference only. But this reminds me of another question worth paying attention to, which year is the level of India's economy comparable to that of our country? Focus on comparing economic scale and per capita GDP Taking the GDP of China and India in the past year as an example, India's economic scale in 2023 is approximately 288.3 trillion rupees, or 3.49 trillion US dollars. There is no exact matching year, the closest is 2007, with Ch...
