Let $ p \geq 2$ be a prime number. Eduardo and Fernando play the following game making moves alternately: in each move, the current player chooses an index $i$ in the set $\{0,1,2,\ldots, p-1 \}$ that was not chosen before by either of the two players and then chooses an element $a_i$ from the set $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$.

a) Two positive integers are chosen. The sum is revealed to logician $A$, and the sum of squares is revealed to logician $B$. Both $A$ and $B$ are given this information and the information contained in this sentence. The conversation between $A$ and $B$ goes as follows: $B$ starts B: ` I can't tell what they are.' A: ` I can't tell what they are.' B: ` I can't tell what they are.' A: ` I can't tell what they are.' B: ` I can't tell what they are.' A: ` I can't tell what they are.' B: ` Now I can tell what they are.' What are the two numbers? b) When $B$ first says that he cannot tell what the two numbers are, $A$ receives a large amount of information. But when $A$ first says that he cannot tell what the two numbers are, $B$ already knows that $A$ cannot tell what the two numbers are. What good does it do $B$ to listen to $A$?
