The number $1234567890$ is written on the blackboard. Two players $A$ and $B$ play the following game taking alternate moves. In one move, a player erases the number which is written on the blackboard, say, $m$, subtracts from $m$ any positive integer not exceeding the sum of the digits of $m$ and writes the obtained result instead of $m$. The first player who reduces the number written on the blackboard to $0$ wins. Determine which of the players has the winning strategy if the player $A$ makes the first move.

We say that a string of digits from $0$ to $9$ is valid if the following conditions hold: First, for $2 \le k \le 4$, no consecutive run of $k$ digits sums to a multiple of $10$. Second, between any two $0$s, there are at least $3$ other digits. Find the last four digits of the number of valid strings of length $2020$.

A subset of $\{1, 2, 3, ... ... , 2015\}$ is called good if the following condition is fulfilled: for any element $x$ of the subset, the sum of all the other elements in the subset has the same last digit as $x$.
For example, $\{10, 20, 30\}$ is a good subset since $10$ has the same last digit as $20 + 30 = 50$, $20$ has the same last digit as $10 + 30 = 40$, and $30$ has the same last digit as $10 + 20 = 30$.
(a) Find an example of a good subset with 400 elements.
(b) Prove that there is no good subset with 405 elements.

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. Thibaud the Tiger lays $n$ $2\times 2$ overlapping squares out on a table, such that the centers of the squares are equally spaced along the line $y=x$ from $(0,0)$ to $(1,1)$ (including the two endpoints). For example, for $n=4$ the resulting figure is shown below, and it covers a total area of $\frac{23}{3}$.
