Problem 548

Post by wrongrook »

Can you also give the value for g(1)?

I am not sure from the problem statement whether g(1) should be 0 or 1?

Is it worth a clarification in the problem statement?

In my opinion not.
If one has chosen g(1)=0 and gets "wrong answer" it's very little trouble to enter answer+1, isn't it?
Works actually faster than coming here and ask this question.

For the digits shown, I get the first and fourth digits different... But anywys, I get an eight digit answer but your answer has nine digits..
