Cozy the Cat and Dash the Dog are going up a staircase with a certain number of steps. However, instead of walking up the steps one at a time, both Cozy and Dash jump. Cozy goes two steps up with each jump (though if necessary, he will just jump the last step). Dash goes five steps up with each jump (though if necessary, he will just jump the last steps if there are fewer than 5 steps left). Suppose the Dash takes 19 fewer jumps than Cozy to reach the top of the staircase. Let $s$ denote the sum of all possible numbers of steps this staircase can have. What is the sum of the digits of $s$?

It is given sequence wih length of $2017$ which consists of first $2017$ positive integers in arbitrary order (every number occus exactly once). Let us consider a first term from sequence, let it be $k$. From given sequence we form a new sequence of length 2017, such that first $k$ elements of new sequence are same as first $k$ elements of original sequence, but in reverse order while other elements stay unchanged. Prove that if we continue transforming a sequence, eventually we will have sequence with first element $1$.

Peter and Basil take turns drawing roads on a plane, Peter starts. The road is either horizontal or a vertical line along which one can drive in only one direction (that direction is determined when the road is drawn). Can Basil always act in such a way that after each of his moves one could drive according to the rules between any two constructed crossroads, regardless of Peter's actions?
