Given a positive integer $n$, all of its positive integer divisors are written on a board. Two players $A$ and $B$ play the following game:
Each turn, each player colors one of these divisors either red or blue. They may choose whichever color they wish, but they may only color numbers that have not been colored before. The game ends once every number has been colored. $A$ wins if the product of all of the red numbers is a perfect square, or if no number has been colored red, $B$ wins otherwise. If $A$ goes first, determine who has a winning strategy for each $n$.

A triangular array of numbers has a first row consisting of the odd integers $ 1,3,5,\ldots,99$ in increasing order. Each row below the first has one fewer entry than the row above it, and the bottom row has a single entry. Each entry in any row after the top row equals the sum of the two entries diagonally above it in the row immediately above it. How many entries in the array are multiples of $ 67$?

From a square board $1000\times 1000$ four rectangles $2\times 994$ have been cut off as shown on the picture. Initially, on the marked square there is a centaur - a piece that moves to the adjacent square to the left, up, or diagonally up-right in each move. Two players alternately move the centaur. The one who cannot make a move loses the game. Who has a winning strategy?
