A large number of rocks are placed on a table. On each turn, one may remove some rocks from the table following these rules: on the first turn, only one rock may be removed, and on every subsequent turn, one may remove either twice as many rocks or the same number of rocks as they have discarded on the previous turn. Determine the minimum number of turns required to remove exactly $2012$ rocks from the table.

Let $f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a function defined as the maximum of a finite number of functions $g:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ of the form $g(x)=C\cdot10^{-|x-d|}$ (with different values of parameters $d{}$ and $C>0$). For real numbers $a<b$ we have $f(a)=f(b)$. Prove that on the segment $[a;b]$ the sum of legnths of segments on which $f$ is increasing is equal to the sum of legnths of segments on which $f$ is decreasing.

The ruler of Laputa will set up a train network between cities in the state, which satisfies the following conditions:
- [i]Uniformity[/i]: From one city to another, by train, possibly through exchanges.
- [i]Prohibition N[/i]: There exist no four cities $A, B, C, D$ such that there are direct routes between $A$ and $B, B$ and $C$, and $C$ and $D$, but taking a shortcut is not possible, that is, there are no direct rout between $A$ and $C, B$ and $D$, or $A$ and $D$.
In addition, a direct airliner connection will be established exactly between their city pairs, with no direct train connection.
Prove that the airline network is not connected when there is more than one city.

A rectangular array has $ n$ rows and $ 6$ columns, where $ n \geq 2$. In each cell there is written either $ 0$ or $ 1$. All rows in the array are different from each other. For each two rows $ (x_{1},x_{2},x_{3},x_{4},x_{5},x_{6})$ and $ (y_{1},y_{2},y_{3},y_{4},y_{5},y_{6})$, the row $ (x_{1}y_{1},x_{2}y_{2},x_{3}y_{3},x_{4}y_{4},x_{5}y_{5},x_{6}y_{6})$ can be found in the array as well. Prove that there is a column in which at least half of the entries are zeros.

Kiko and Ñoño play with a rod of length $2n$ where $n \le 3$ is an integer. Kiko cuts the rod in $ k \le 2n$ pieces of integer lengths. Then Ñoño has to arrange these pieces so that they form a hexagon of equal opposite sides and equal angles. The pieces can not be split and they all have to be used. If Ñoño achieves his goal, he wins, in any other case, Kiko wins. Determine which victory can be secured based on $k$.
