2014 National Olympiad First Round, 32
There are $k$ stones on the table. Alper, Betul and Ceyhun take one or two stones from the table one by one. The player who cannot make a move loses the game and then the game finishes. The game is played once for each $k=5,6,7,8,9$. If Alper is always the first player, for how many of the games can Alper guarantee that he does not lose the game?

Let $\, a$, and $b \,$ be odd positive integers. Define the sequence $\{f_n\}_{n\ge 1}$ by putting $\, f_1 = a,$ $f_2 = b, \,$ and by letting $\, f_n \,$ for $\, n \geq 3 \,$ be the greatest odd divisor of $\, f_{n-1} + f_{n-2}$. Show that $\, f_n \,$ is constant for sufficiently large $\, n \,$ and determine the eventual value as a function of $\, a \,$ and $\, b$.

At the entrance to a cave is a rotating round table. On top of the table are $n$ identical barrels, evenly spaced along its circumference. Inside each barrel is a herring either with its head up or its head down. In a move, Ali Baba chooses from $1$ to $n$ of the barrels and turns them upside down. Then the table spins around. When it stops, it is impossible to tell which barrels have been turned over. The cave will open if the heads of the herrings in all $n$ barrels are up or are all down. Determine all values of $n$ for which Ali Baba can open the cave in a fi nite number of moves.
