we define a sequence \(p_1\)>\(p_2\)>\(p_3\)...........>\(p_n\) .such that \(p_i>p_{i+1}\) implies \(p_i\) has beaten \(p_{i+1}\)
[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Hint 2" _builder_version="3.22.4"]let assume that the statement is true for n=k i.e \(p_1> p_2>p_3.........p_k\)now look into the case of \(p_{k+1}\)
[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Hint 3" _builder_version="3.23.3"]if \(p_{k+1}\) > \(p_1\) or \(p_k\)>\(p_{k+1}\) we are done (why?)[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Hint 4" _builder_version="3.22.4"] if \(p_k\)<\(p_{k+1}\) or \(p_{k+1}\)<\(p_1\) then we can find out at least one pair \(p_i\) >\(p_{i+1}\) such that \(p_i\)> \(p_{k+1}\) >\(p_{i+1}\) , we can just find it by shifting \(p_{k+1}\) term by term [ you can make some small experiment ].other wise it contradict our initial assumption that \(p_k\)<\(p_{k+1}\) or \(p_{k+1}\)<\(p_1\) [ why?] hence we are done

These courses are B.Stat and B.Math program in I.S.I., B.Sc. Math in C.M.I.
The entrances to these programs are far more challenging than usual engineering entrances. Cheenta offers an intense, problem-driven program for these two entrances.
