HISTORY

Math problems appear regularly in contests and journal problem columns. In 1989 an ambitious project to index these problems was launched by MathPro Press. By 1998 enough data had been gathered to publish this website, with help from Leon Hall at the University of Missouri - Rolla.
Currently the site contains exactly 20,000 problems from 38 journals and 21 contests, all published before 1990. References to published solutions appear for most problems. Many solutions have been entered online.
