Project Euler Problem 114: https://projecteuler.net/problem=114
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A row measuring seven units in length has red blocks with a minimum length
|
||
|
|
of three units placed on it, such that any two red blocks
|
||
|
|
(which are allowed to be different lengths) are separated by at least one grey square.
|
||
|
|
There are exactly seventeen ways of doing this.

How many ways can a row measuring fifty units in length be filled?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: Although the example above does not lend itself to the possibility,
|
||
|
|
in general it is permitted to mix block sizes. For example,
|
||
|
|
on a row measuring eight units in length you could use red (3), grey (1), and red (4).
