Re:Stepping into math: Open-sourcing our step-by-step solver by vkou on Saturday January 21, 2017 @02:33PM (#13451643)
Presumably, it consists of verifying that 3 x 3 x 3 = 27. But who the hell knows.

Alternatively, maybe it expects a binary search through the decision space? 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 < 27.

Too bad this breaks down when the problem is trivially adjusted - not in the X^3 = 28 way (As binary search can approximate that), but in the X^3.3 = 27 way.
