Comment on German teen solves 300-year-old mathematical riddle posed by Sir Isaac Newton

I doubt he actually has the solution, unless he solved the turbulence problem and the movement of a body through gas mathematically.

The university press release mentioned above states that he gave analytical approximations. So, he did not solve things analytically. The press release also does not mention the quality of those approximations.
