From a $n\times (n-1)$ rectangle divided into unit squares, we cut the [i]corner[/i], which consists of the first row and the first column. (that is, the corner has $2n-2$ unit squares). For the following, when we say [i]corner[/i] we reffer to the above definition, along with rotations and symmetry. Consider an infinite lattice of unit squares. We will color the squares with $k$ colors, such that for any corner, the squares in that corner are coloured differently (that means that there are no squares coloured with the same colour). Find out the minimum of $k$. [i]Proposed by S. Berlov[/i]
