Let $P(x,y)$ be a polynomial such that $\deg_x(P), \deg_y(P)\le 2020$ and \[P(i,j)=\binom{i+j}{i}\] over all $2021^2$ ordered pairs $(i,j)$ with $0\leq i,j\leq 2020$. Find the remainder when $P(4040, 4040)$ is divided by $2017$.
Note: $\deg_x (P)$ is the highest exponent of $x$ in a nonzero term of $P(x,y)$. $\deg_y (P)$ is defined similarly.

On Halloween 31 children walked into the principal's office asking for candy. They can be classified into three types: Some always lie; some always tell the truth; and some alternately lie and tell the truth. The alternaters arbitrarily choose their first response, either a lie or the truth, but each subsequent statement has the opposite truth value from its predecessor. The principal asked everyone the same three questions in this order.
"Are you a truth-teller?" The principal gave a piece of candy to each of the 22 children who answered yes.
"Are you an alternater?" The principal gave a piece of candy to each of the 15 children who answered yes.
"Are you a liar?" The principal gave a piece of candy to each of the 9 children who answered yes.
How many pieces of candy in all did the principal give to the children who always tell the truth?
