The problem states that S(3,3) = 32. But S(3,3) = F(3,1) + F(3,1) + F(3,2) + F(3,3), and we're given that F(3,3) = 512. So what's the correct value for S(3,3) (592?)?

No, read again the definition of S(w, n):

S(3, 3) = F(3, f1) + F(3, f2) + F(3, f3).

Thanks. Always a problem when not reading things carefully!
