Default Re: tough logic problem

I don't think (4,13) is a unique solution, as I believe (4,19) also works.

For larger values of m + n, the fact that Y can then determine the product comes into play. For example, when X can determine that m + n = 27, Y would not be able to know if (m,n) was (2,25) or (4,23).
