We consider the sequences strictely increasing $(a_0,a_1,...)$ of naturals which have the following property :
For every natural $n$, there is exactly one representation of $n$ as $a_i+2a_j+4a_k$, where $i,j,k$ can be equal.
Prove that there is exactly a such sequence and find $a_{2002}$

There are $n$ coins in the pile. Two players play a game by alternately performing a move. A move consists of taking $5,7$ or $11$ coins away from the pile. The player unable to perform a move loses the game. Which player - the one playing first or second - has the winning strategy if:
(a) $n=2001$;
(b) $n=5000$?

We are given the finite sets $ X$, $ A_1$, $ A_2$, $ \dots$, $ A_{n \minus{} 1}$ and the functions $ f_i: \ X\rightarrow A_i$. A vector $ (x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n)\in X^n$ is called [i]nice[/i], if $ f_i(x_i) \equal{} f_i(x_{i \plus{} 1})$, for each $ i \equal{} 1,2,\dots,n \minus{} 1$.
