Farmer Brown's cows are up in arms, having heard that McDonalds is considering the introduction of a new product: Beef McNuggets. The cows are trying to find any possible way to put such a product in a negative light.
One strategy the cows are pursuing is that of `inferior packaging'. ``Look,'' say the cows, ``if you have Beef McNuggets in boxes of 3, 6, and 10, you ca
You just inherited the rights to N (1 <= N <= 20) previously unreleased songs recorded by the popular group Raucous Rockers. You plan to release a set of M (1 <= M <= 20) compact disks with a selection of these songs. Each disk can hold a maximum of T (1 <= T <= 20) minutes of music, and a song can not overlap from one disk to another.
In this problem, `lattice points' in the plane are points with integer coordinates.
In order to contain his cows, Farmer John constructs a triangular electric fence by stringing a "hot" wire from the origin (0,0) to a lattice point [n,m] (0<=;n<32000, 0<m<32000), then to a lattice point on the positive x axis [p,0] (p>0), and then back to the ori
Consider the following two-player game played with a sequence of N positive integers (2 <= N <= 100) laid onto a game board. Player 1 starts the game. The players move alternately by selecting a number from either the left or the right end of the sequence. That number is then deleted from the board, and its value is added to the score of the player who selected it. A player
Following the success of the magic cube, Mr. Rubik invented its planar version, called magic squares. This is a sheet composed of 8 equal-sized squares:
1
2
3
4
8
7
6
5
In this task we consider the version where each square has a diffe
