Ask NRICH is our &amp;#39;Ask-a-Mathematician&amp;#39; service.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
If you have a question about a particular problem (an NRICH problem or one you&amp;#39;ve seen somewhere else), or about mathematics in general, Ask NRICH is the place to go.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
We have a team of mathematics undergraduates here at Cambridge University who will do their best to help you - not by giving you the answer but by helping you to think your way through the problem.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
They are very quick and friendly!  - most questions get a useful reply within the day.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
Anyone can read the posts on Ask NRICH but if you want to ask a question you have to register.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
There are four main places to go:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://nrich.maths.org/discus/messages/26/26.html&quot;&gt;Please explain&lt;/a&gt; -  for the sort of mathematics discussed up to the age of 15 or 16.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://nrich.maths.org/discus/messages/27/27.html&quot;&gt;Onwards and Upwards&lt;/a&gt; - for anything that is usually encountered at ages 16 - 18.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://nrich.maths.org/discus/messages/7601/7601.html?&quot;&gt;Higher dimension&lt;/a&gt; -  for those at university studying mathematics.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://nrich.maths.org/discus/messages/151757/151757.html&quot;&gt;Maths in science and other subjects&lt;/a&gt; - For mathematical questions concerning other school subjects.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
Why don&amp;#39;t you go and have a quick peek now....&lt;a href=&quot;https://nrich.maths.org/discus/messages/board-topics.html&quot;&gt;go to Ask NRICH&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/br&gt;
