Welcome back my new daily STEM competition. The competition is all about having fun and learning new thing about science, technology, engineering, and math. I will be presenting a new question every day. Some questions may be about general science knowledge, others may require you to write a small program or solve a math problem. I encourage you to browse the web and find the solution. In the end, it is all about learning something.
