Let $ n$ and $ k$ be positive integers with $ k \geq n$ and $ k \minus{} n$ an even number. Let $ 2n$ lamps labelled $ 1$, $ 2$, ..., $ 2n$ be given, each of which can be either [i]on[/i] or [i]off[/i]. Initially all the lamps are off. We consider sequences of steps: at each step one of the lamps is switched (from on to off or from off to on). Let $ N$ be the number of such sequences consisting of $ k$ steps and resulting in the state where lamps $ 1$ through $ n$ are all on, and lamps $ n \plus{} 1$ through $ 2n$ are all off. Let $ M$ be number of such sequences consisting of $ k$ steps, resulting in the state where lamps $ 1$ through $ n$ are all on, and lamps $ n \plus{} 1$ through $ 2n$ are all off, but where none of the lamps $ n \plus{} 1$ through $ 2n$ is ever switched on. Determine $ \frac {N}{M}$. [i]Author: Bruno Le Floch and Ilia Smilga, France[/i]

Two players $A$ and $B$ take turns playing the following game: There is a pile of $2003$ stones. In his first turn, $A$ selects a divisor of $2003$ and removes this number of stones from the pile. $B$ then chooses a divisor of the number of remaining stones, and removes that number of stones from the new pile, and so on. The player who has to remove the last stone loses. Show that one of the two players has a winning strategy and describe the strategy.
