I don't get it.
When you have to go look up the answer in google I guess it takes a little longer. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[/ QUOTE ]so when you have the answer memorized, how long does it take?
There are 3 1's, 1 3, 1 2, 1 1, 1 2, 1 2, and 2 1's
You wrote it in a way that will be too easy to solve. Having the numbers in a column makes it simpler to see what's happening, for some reason, and removes the tendency to think of the values as "one", "eleven", "twenty-one"... and so on.
It took me a little over an hour to get it the first time I ever saw it, and at the end I was like "GOD DAMN IT!"
