Competition Mathematics
Problems worth
sitting with.
Weekly competition mathematics problems with full, typeset solutions — sourced from olympiads, integration bees, and university competitions. Every step justified. Every source referenced.

About
PringlesMaths
I'm a British engineering student with several years of competition mathematics experience, including the British Mathematical Olympiad, the British Physics Olympiad, and various university admissions tests. PringlesMaths started as a way to stay mathematically sharp — and turned into something I didn't expect.
Each week I post four problems sourced from olympiads, integration bees, and competition mathematics worldwide, with full LaTeX-typeset solutions — every step written out, every source cited. The account has grown to a community of over 13,000 followers who take competition mathematics seriously. I post because I believe elegant mathematics deserves to be written down properly.
30 competition integration problems with full solutions, hints, and difficulty ratings. Covering Feynman's technique, contour integration, special functions, and more.
If you find the weekly problems useful, a Ko-fi contribution helps keep the account running. Every supporter is appreciated.
Four new problems every week — olympiads, integration bees, STEP, and Putnam. Full solutions posted across the carousel.
Sessions tailored to competition preparation, university admissions (STEP, MAT, PAT), or olympiad training. Get in touch to discuss availability.
A curated collection of olympiad problems with full solutions, covering number theory, combinatorics, geometry, and inequalities.
Have a problem you'd like to see featured? Students at universities worldwide have had their problems appear in Pringles Problems. Send it in.
Tutoring, collaborations,
and everything else.
Whether you're preparing for STEP, MAT, or PAT, training for the BMO or IMO, or just want to talk about a problem, get in touch. I'm also open to collaborations with university maths societies and competition organisers.
