[NoResistance]

Since we now have official confirmation that we can use these boards for our own puzzle designs, I thought a thread for one-off puzzles should be started, if anyone wants to create a small brainteaser without starting a large running plot in case they lack the time and/or dedication to see it through to the end. Anyway, here's a small, relatively easy one to start off with. If Z(E+Π+I) - (F×Δ) = 1010000001, then what does Ξ(B+M-Θ) ÷ (E-A) equal?

[potnoodles]

I know what it equals !!!!

Ξ(B+M-Θ) ÷ (E-A) = Ξ(B+M-Θ) ÷ (E-A)

I got confused on the first part! I'm lost already!

There are two distinct stages to find the answer if that helps.

I'll do it tomorrow. Right now I'm about to go out for beer and darts and snooker and quiz and, with any luck, wimmins

Got it

Well I hope so. If I got the answer wrong then it's errors in my calculaion that have done it, rather than me not getting the puzzle (I hope).

Anyway, highlight to reveal my final answer only (SPOILER):

I'm sure NoResistance wouldn't mind writing a walkthrough if it stumped people, and I wouldn't mind writing a quick one either, but it really looks harder than it is, like NoResistance said. So, don't see it and just give up

oooooh, click! .. I kept looking at that and thinking WTH .. the 'variables' from one equation are different to the other .. this is just nonsense. And then after a few minutes I suddenly realised ..

Thanks OP .. next please

Im still seeing nothing here - problem is the symbols remind me of quantum mechanics equations (and I know that is not it)

It's really much simpler than that. If you know the name of any of the symbols, try doing a little further research into it (I used Wikipedia)

Whoop! Got it.
