Tom first blindfolds Harry and begins to set up the game. Tom places $4$ quarters on an index card, one on each corner of the card. It is Harry’s job to flip all the coins either face-up or face-down using the following rules: (a) Harry is allowed to flip as many coins as he wants during his turn. (b) A turn consists of Harry flipping as many coins as he wants (while blindfolded). When he is happy with what he has flipped, Harry will ask Tom whether or not he was successful in flipping all the coins face-up or face-down. If yes, then Harry wins. If no, then Tom will take the index card back, rotate the card however he wants, and return it back to Harry, thus starting Harry’s next turn. Note that Tom cannot touch the coins after he initially places them before starting the game. Assuming that Tom’s initial configuration of the coins weren’t all face-up or face-down, and assuming that Harry uses the most efficient algorithm, how many moves maximum will Harry need in order to win? Or will he never win? PS. You had better use hide for answers.

There are $100$ boxes, each containing either a red cube or a blue cube. Alex has a sum of money initially, and places bets on the colour of the cube in each box in turn. The bet can be anywhere from $0$ up to everything he has at the time. After the bet has been placed, the box is opened. If Alex loses, his bet will be taken away. If he wins, he will get his bet back, plus a sum equal to the bet. Then he moves onto the next box, until he has bet on the last one, or until he runs out of money.
