I think you mean... P = NP. Which is very unlikely as we could do away with mathematicians if that were true.


Seems unlikely, but not proven. That's the point. I dunno about 'do away with mathematicians'.


Yeah, I just thought that showing how to solve a best-case exponential function in polynomial kind was the sort of thing that would prove P = NP (I dictated this before, so NP came out as MP)
