In a school there are $2021$ doors with the numbers $1,2,\dots,2021$. In a day $2021$ students play the following game: Initially all the doors are closed, and each student receive a card to define the order, there are exactly $2021$ cards. The numbers in the cards are $1,2,\dots,2020,2021$.
The order will be student $1$ first, student $2$ will be the second, and going on. The student $k$ will change the state of the doors $k,2k,4k,8k,\dots,2^pk$ with $2^pk\leq 2021\leq 2^{p+1}k$. Change the state is [b]if the door was close, it will be open and vice versa.[/b]
a) After the round of the student $16$, determine the configuration of the doors $1,2,\dots,16$
b) After the round of the student $2021$, determine how many doors are closed.

We say "$s$ grows to $r$" if there exists some integer $n>0$ such that $s^n = r.$ Call a real number $r$ "sparcs" if there are only finitely many real numbers $s$ that grow to $r.$ Find all real numbers that are sparse.

For every integer $n \ge 1$, the function $f_n : \left\{ 0, 1, \cdots, n \right\} \to \mathbb R$ is defined recursively by $f_n(0) = 0$, $f_n(1) = 1$ and \[ (n-k) f_n(k-1) + kf_n(k+1) = nf_n(k) \] for each $1 \le k < n$. Let $S_N = f_{N+1}(1) + f_{N+2}(2) + \cdots + f_{2N} (N)$. Find the remainder when $\left\lfloor S_{2013} \right\rfloor$ is divided by $2011$. (Here $\left\lfloor x \right\rfloor$ is the greatest integer not exceeding $x$.)

Right triangle $ABC$ has a right angle at $A.$ Points $D$ and $E$ respectively lie on $\overline{AC}$ and $\overline{BC}$ so that $\angle BDA \cong \angle CDE.$ If the lengths $DE,$ $DA,$ $DC,$ and $DB,$ in this order, form an arithmetic sequence of distinct positive integers, then the set of all possible areas of $\triangle ABC$ is a subset of the positive integers. Compute the smallest element in this set that is greater than $1000.$

Let $\varepsilon$ denote the empty string. Given a pair of strings $(A,B)\in\{0,1,2\}^*\times\{0,1\}^*$, we are allowed the following operations:
\[\begin{cases}
(A,1)\to(A0,\varepsilon)\\
(A,10)\to(A00,\varepsilon)\\
(A,0B)\to(A0,B)\\
(A,11B)\to(A01,B)\\
(A,100B)\to(A0012,1B)\\
(A,101B)\to(A00122,10B)
\end{cases}\]
We perform these operations on $(A,B)$ until we can no longer perform any of them. We then iteratively delete any instance of $20$ in $A$ and replace any instance of $21$ with $1$ until there are no such substrings remaining. Among all binary strings $X$ of size $9$, how many different possible outcomes are there for this process performed on $(\varepsilon,X)$?
