The application itself doesn't have any time limit, so take your time trying to solve the challenges.
Also, I recommend you not to use the calculator to do the math, even when things gets really hairy.
You can get the application here: https://mega.nz/file/psohFKzT#I5BYc_35EbAu3b7sCj2NAwaQJ5Ju5AOCGUfegC1PCWU
Have fun :D.
Ps:. If you want, post in the comments the score and stage you achieved when you failed.
If you're interessed in the story behind this, you can simply continue reading.
So, I was developing an application on console, due to a thing I saw on linkedin that was very insulting, where they made a comparission between c# and python, and the c# example looked like was made by someone who just completed hello world tutorial.
I made an application that did the exact same thing the python image was showing, but by only using a method to write the message and getting the player input. I also took the liberty of adding a "> " to the console before letting you write something.
After doing that and posting the image with the result and the code in action, the program went dormant on my pc, and I never touched it again, until some weeks later.
I decided to refactor the program, and make a kind of helpful console assistant with apps and stuff, and that's when Math Challenge surged. Math Challenge was the only app the console assistant had, but what I did on it was so great that I decided to make a standalone version of it, but this time in java.
My original intention, was of making it be a java applet application, so you could simply run it on the browser and play it on this blog, until I discovered that applets were dropped since Java 9 (current version of Java is 15).
I changed the codes of the program to make it be a desktop application instead, and there it is. One anomaly I had when developing the program, was the computer using all my hard drive space in paged files. I don't exactly know why that happened, beside I think was because I forgot to set the window to be disposed on close. The program didn't gave me any problem again, so maybe the issue isn't happening anymore.
Anyways, I hope this program ends up being useful for you guys. And I hope it makes a few people change their mind about math.
If you want to see about the program I talked about, you can see It's github page. There's even a version of it disponible, if you want to try it and know what I was messing with.
