There are $1999$ balls in a row, some are red and some are blue (it could be all red or all blue). Under every ball we write a number equal to the sum of the amount of red balls in the right of this ball plus the sum of the amount of the blue balls that are in the left of this ball.

The vertical side of a square is divided onto $n$ segments. The sum of the segments with even numbers lengths equals to the sum of the segments with odd numbers lengths. $n-1$ lines parallel to the horizontal sides are drawn from the segments ends, and, thus, $n$ strips are obtained. The diagonal is drawn from the lower left corner to the upper right one. This diagonal divides every strip onto left and right parts. Prove that the sum of the left parts of odd strips areas equals to the sum of the right parts of even strips areas.

A tourist office was investigating the numbers of sunny and rainy days in a year in each of six regions. The results are partly shown in the following table:
Region , sunny or rainy , unclassified
$A \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 336 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,29$
$B \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 321 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,44$
$C \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 335 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,30$
$D \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 343 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,22$
$E \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 329 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,36$
$F \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, 330 \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,35$
Looking at the detailed data, an officer observed that if one region is excluded, then the total number of rainy days in the other regions equals one third of the total number of sunny days in these regions. Determine which region is excluded.
