Let $a_0$ be an arbitrary positive integer. Consider the infinite sequence $(a_n)_{n\geq 1}$, defined inductively as follows: given $a_0, a_1, ..., a_{n-1}$ define the term $a_n$ as the smallest positive integer such that $a_0+a_1+...+a_n$ is divisible by $n$. Prove that there exist a positive integer a positive integer $M$ such that $a_{n+1}=a_n$ for all $n\geq M$.

Given any two positive real numbers $x$ and $y$, then $x\Diamond y$ is a positive real number defined in terms of $x$ and $y$ by some fixed rule. Suppose the operation $x\Diamond y$ satisfies the equations $(x\cdot y)\Diamond y=x(y\Diamond y)$ and $(x\Diamond 1)\Diamond x=x\Diamond 1$ for all $x,y>0$. Given that $1\Diamond 1=1$, find $19\Diamond 98$.

Given are $n$ points with different abscissas in the plane. Through every pair points is drawn a parabola - a graph of a square trinomial with leading coefficient equal to $1$. A parabola is called $good$ if there are no other marked points on it, except for the two through which it is drawn, and there are no marked points above it (i.e. inside it). What is the greatest number of $good$ parabolas?
