Suppose we have $2013$ piles of coins, with the $i$th pile containing exactly $i$ coins. We wish to remove the coins in a series of steps. In each step, we are allowed to take away coins from as many piles as we wish, but we have to take the same number of coins from each pile. We cannot take away more coins than a pile actually has. What is the minimum number of steps we have to take?

In Wonderland, the towns are connected by roads, and whenever there is a direct road between two towns there is also a route between these two towns that does not use that road. (There is at most one direct road between any two towns.) The Queen of Hearts ordered the Spades to provide a list of all ”even” subsystems of the system of roads, that is, systems formed by subsets of the set of roads, where each town is connected to an even number of roads (possibly none). For each such subsystem they should list its roads. If there are totally $n$ roads in Wonderland and $x$ subsystems on the Spades’ list, what is the number of roads on their list when each road is counted as many times as it is listed?
