Räkna med snillen - Olympiad i Chiang Mai i juli


1+2 på hög nivå
Knäppskallar ombeds ta sin Mat(h)s ur skolan.
Två elever från Malmö borgarskola, två från Hvitfeldtska gymnasiet i Göteborg och en vardera från Danderyds gymnasium och Norra real i Stockholm - blir Sveriges lag i Internationella matematikolympiaden (IMO) som avgörs nästa sommar vid Chiang Mai University.

Det finns redan en HEMSIDA.


OLYMPIAD (betydelse)
När det gäller sport är en Olympiad en period á 4 år mellan de Olympiska Spelen. Olympiad kan även ha annan betydelse (från Wikipedia):
The English term is still often used popularly to indicate the games themselves, a usage that is strictly erroneous (as an Olympiad is the time period between and including sets of games) but widely accepted.
It is also used to indicate international competitions other than physical sports. This includes international science olympiads, such as the International Geography Olympiad, International Mathematical Olympiad and the International Linguistics Olympiad and their associated national qualifying tests (e.g., the United States of America Mathematical Olympiad or the North American Computational Linguistics Olympiad), and also events in mind-sports, such as the Science Olympiad, Mindsport Olympiad, Chess Olympiad and Computer Olympiad. In these cases Olympiad is used to indicate a regular event of international competition; it does not necessarily indicate a four-year period.
