2014 Dutch IMO TST, 5

On each of the $2014^2$ squares of a $2014 \times 2014$-board a light bulb is put. Light bulbs can be either on or off. In the starting situation a number of the light bulbs is on. A move consists of choosing a row or column in which at least $1007$ light bulbs are on and changing the state of all $2014$ light bulbs in this row or column (from on to off or from off to on). Find the smallest non-negative integer $k$ such that from each starting situation there is a finite sequence of moves to a situation in which at most $k$ light bulbs are on.

2001 Flanders Math Olympiad, 4

A student concentrates on solving quadratic equations in $\mathbb{R}$. He starts with a first quadratic equation $x^2 + ax + b = 0$ where $a$ and $b$ are both different from 0. If this first equation has solutions $p$ and $q$ with $p \leq q$, he forms a second quadratic equation $x^2 + px + q = 0$. If this second equation has solutions, he forms a third quadratic equation in an identical way. He continues this process as long as possible. Prove that he will not obtain more than five equations.
