There are $N\ge3$ letters arranged in a circle, and each letter is one of $L$, $T$ and $F$. For a letter, we can do the following operation: if its neighbors are the same, then change it to the same letter too; otherwise, change it so that it is different from both its neighbors. Show that for any initial state, one can perform finitely many operations to achieve a stable state. Here, a stable state means that any operation does not change any of the $N$ letters. (ltf0501)

There are a family of $5$ siblings. They have a pile of at least $2$ candies and are trying to split them up amongst themselves. If the $2$ oldest siblings share the candy equally, they will have $1$ piece of candy left over. If the $3$ oldest siblings share the candy equally, they will also have $1$ piece of candy left over. If all $5$ siblings share the candy equally, they will also have $1$ piece left over. What is the minimum amount of candy required for this to be true?
