    Substitute the 2023 on the left side with x^x^2023 and we get x^x^x^x^2023=2023. Repeat infinite and we get x^x^x^x^...=2023. This is the same as x^(x^x^x^...)=2023. Substitute the parentheses with 2023 and we get x^2023=2023. (As we assumed that the limit of x^x^x^... exists, we have to plug this value into the original equation to proof that this is actually a solution.)

    I think you do need an extra line of logic at the end to be completely accurate, as y = x^X is not strictly monotonic.

    So, in general, if we replace 2023 in this problem with say, “Box”, then any equation in the form of x to the x to the Box = Box will have the solution x = [Box to the 1/Box], since that would result in the LHS always simplifying to [Box to the 1st power], which is Box (as long as Box zero).

    No, this is not correct In the last part he uses the fact that f(y)=y^y is injective. But this is true only if x>1. In this case f(y)=f(2023) implies y=2023, because f(y)>1 so y^y>1 and y>1. Now, in ]1,+infty[ f is injective so y=2023. But if you choose 0

    An absurd problem we'll never see in the real world. But I'm just drinking beer and relaxing, so here goes. If a^a = b^b then bases a and b are equal. So let's look for the a^a = b^b format. Raise both sides by a freaking absurd power of 2023. KEY: the 2023 on the LHS goes on the x DOWNSTAIRS. So we have the absurdity of x^2023^x^2023 = 2023^2023. There's the format we want. So x^2023 = 2023 and x = a ridiculous 2023^(1/2023). I need another beer.

    @@Мопс_001That's not what I said, though. For simplicity, let a = x^2023, making the original equation x^a = 2023. Raising each side to the power of 1/2023 yields (x^a)^(1/2023) = 2023^(1/2023), yielding x^(a/2023) = 2023^(1/2023). Since the solution is, per the author, x = 2023^(1/2023), x must be equal to x^(a/2023) since they're equal to the same thing. Given that x can alternately be written as x^1, this means x^1 = x^(a/2023). By inspection, it's obvious that (a/2023) =1, and by reverse substitution, (x^2023/2023) =1, my original point. (as for your "x^((x^2023)/2023) is not the same as x^((x*2023)/2023), I'm not sure where you picked up the (*) sign.)

    the reason English speaker usually doesn't good at calculating(or mental calculating) is because of the name of number. It is too long. In case of Korean, all the sounds from 1 to 10 are all short one syllables. it is easy to pronounce. but In case of English, 1,2,4,10 are short syllables, but, 3,5,6,8,9 are long syllables because of two reasons. 1) the sound of [ai], [ei] (five, nine, eight) makes pronouncing longer. For example, say fast oneoneoneoneoneone, and say fast eight,eight,eight,eight The speed of the former is faster than the speed of pronouncing eight. 2) the existence of consonants before(or after) one syllable. For example, three is th + ree , -> it sounds two syllable. (bcz the move of tongue is too big) so say fast oneoneoneoneone, and say fast three,three,three,three.. Also the former is faster : that's because three is long syllable. Six is also long syllable : oneoneoneoneone, sixsixsixsixsix -> the former is faster.(the former is easier to say fast) Even the number of seven is two syllables!! it is too long to pronounce. Moreover, from 11, it is a new word. In case of Korean, we call 11 "tenone", 12 "tentwo" , 24 : twotenfour, 41, fourtenone -> it is very intuitive. and... oh my god.. 100 => hundred, = long two syllable.. omz.. why "long" syllable? -> Compare "hundred" to "body" : body is easier to say faster. because body is short two syllable. hundred is long two syllable. in case of korean, 100 is also one short syllable. thousand, = long two syllable. in case of korean, 1000 is also one short syllable. In conclusion, it is hard to say fast in case of English. For example. 358,936 = three hundred fifty eight thousand nine hundred thirty six. => 14 syllables.(10 long syllables!!!) but in case of korean, 11 syllables, and all syllables, are just short syllable, just one sound. That's why the English speaker is too slow to explain the solution or to calculate numbers.
