A university in China has started to use answer to an algebra equation as its Wi-Fi password and students are made to access the code in a Sin-Cos way.
Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has made such a move considering how students are addicted to the internet which hinders their studies.
Therefore, if a student in the university is to find a way to the online world at the campus, he/she has to solve a mathematics equation.

Nanjing administration said that the move has several advantages. For example, it will develop interest among students to learn more about algebra and mathematics, while the ‘careless’ students will also not have anything to waste their time on.
However, the students have countered the university’s move quite cleverly. Individuals who successfully unlock the code share the answers on social media and with their friends, leaving the administration scratching their heads since they are always made to come up with a new equation.
It is interesting to see how things develop and who wins this tug-of-war.
