So, some bastard linked me a 'petals around the rose' game / puzzle / mind-bender of a thing.

You know? I just can't get it! Or at least the way you are meant to :P


So, Lets Get Mathmatical People, With Just A Dash Of Code!


------------------------------------------------------

/* Lurios accepts no responsibility if this code does not work in your compiler! */

int: total=0
int: array[1,5]


void main()
{
/* Set Petals */
for (i = 1, i < 5, i++)
array[1,i] = Rand_Int(6)

/* count petals */
for (i = 1, i < 5, i++){
if array[1,i] ISEVEN
total = total + 0
Else if array[1,i] ISODD
total = total + array[1,i] - 1
}

print{"Number of Petals Around the Rose:" %d, total)
}

(You know, I corrected this solution twice because I kept forgetting to use 'i' in places :P)
------------------------------------------------------

Now, this is not the solution. Or so I have been told, yet the anwser will be correct none-the-less. Also, if one were to use die with more sides, the result will also be true!.


Damn! Some Uni Infinite Sets Logic actualy came into play! And I thought it all hard and unuseful!

Now excuse me, there is someone I have to go hack limbs off of! >:|
