Nicu plays the Next game on the computer. Initially the number $S$ in the computer has the value $S = 0$. At each step Nicu chooses a certain number $a$ ($0 <a <1$) and enters it in computer. The computer arbitrarily either adds this number $a$ to the number $S$ or it subtracts from $S$ and displays on the screen the new result for $S$. After that Nicu does Next step. It is known that among any $100$ consecutive operations the computer the at least once apply the assembly. Give an arbitrary number $M> 0$. Show that there is a strategy for Nicu that will always allow him after a finite number of steps to get a result $S> M$. [hide=original wording]Nicu joacă la calculator următorul joc. Iniţial numărul S din calculator are valoarea S = 0. La fiecare pas Nicu alege un număr oarecare a (0 < a < 1) şi îl introduce în calculator. Calculatorul, în mod arbitrar, sau adună acest număr a la numărul S sau îl scade din S şi afişează pe ecran rezultatul nou pentru S. După aceasta Nicu face următorul pas. Se ştie că printre oricare 100 de operaţii consecutive calculatorul cel puţin o dată aplică adunarea. Fie dat un număr arbitrar M > 0.

Let \( n \) be a positive integer. A function \( f : \{0, 1, \dots, n\} \to \{0, 1, \dots, n\} \) is called \( n \)-Bolivian if it satisfies the following conditions: • \( f(0) = 0 \); • \( f(t) \in \{ t-1, f(t-1), f(f(t-1)), \dots \} \) for all \( t = 1, 2, \dots, n \). For example, if \( n = 3 \), then the function defined by \( f(0) = f(1) = 0 \), \( f(2) = f(3) = 1 \) is 3-Bolivian, but the function defined by \( f(0) = f(1) = f(2) = 0 \), \( f(3) = 1 \) is not 3-Bolivian. For a fixed positive integer \( n \), Gollum selects an \( n \)-Bolivian function. Smeagol, knowing that \( f \) is \( n \)-Bolivian, tries to figure out which function was chosen by asking questions of the type: \[ \text{How many integers } a \text{ are there such that } f(a) = b? \] given a \( b \) of his choice. Show that if Gollum always answers correctly, Smeagol can determine \( f \) and find the minimum number of questions he needs to ask, considering all possible choices of \( f \).
