The number $1$ is written on the blackboard. After that a sequence of numbers is created as follows: at each step each number $a$ on the blackboard is replaced by the numbers $a - 1$ and $a + 1$; if the number $0$ occurs, it is erased immediately; if a number occurs more than once, all its occurrences are left on the blackboard. Thus the blackboard will show $1$ after $0$ steps; $2$ after $1$ step; $1, 3$ after $2$ steps; $2, 2, 4$ after $3$ steps, and so on. How many numbers will there be on the blackboard after $n$ steps?

Let $ y_0$ be chosen randomly from $ \{0, 50\}$, let $ y_1$ be chosen randomly from $ \{40, 60, 80\}$, let $ y_2$ be chosen randomly from $ \{10, 40, 70, 80\}$, and let $ y_3$ be chosen randomly from $ \{10, 30, 40, 70, 90\}$. (In each choice, the possible outcomes are equally likely to occur.) Let $ P$ be the unique polynomial of degree less than or equal to $ 3$ such that $ P(0) \equal{} y_0$, $ P(1) \equal{} y_1$, $ P(2) \equal{} y_2$, and $ P(3) \equal{} y_3$.

Show that any two intervals $A, B\subseteq \mathbb R$ of positive lengths can be countably disected into each other, that is, they can be written as countable unions $A=A_1\cup A_2\cup\ldots\,$ and $B=B_1\cup B_2\cup\ldots\,$ of pairwise disjoint sets, where $A_i$ and $B_i$ are congruent for every $i\in \mathbb N$ [Gy.
