Introduction The year is 3500 and your spaceship has crashed on the planet Fluxion. Fortunately, your computer has survived the impact. and you open it up to determine the next course of action.

The computer will translate the gates' riddles and any other information into mathematics. You will need to answer the riddle as posed by your computer [in mathematical language} for it to be able to enter the passcode for the gates.

The First Gate Upon arriving at the rst gate: you ask your computer to translate the riddle. "These appear to be limits", your computer replies.
