I kinda like the high-brow tangents these things fly off into.

There is always the danger I might learn something new, and to a jaded techie that's one of the major bonuses of this board.

The code I have does *not* work with all possible combinations - it only finds 422 of Fernando's 465.

It's been crippled because of keeping the size down. In the processes I've also doubled the time that it takes to run, just to save 2 characters.

However, it does adhere to the rules and gives the correct results [Razz]

It's also given me a corker of a UDF that I'll publish once the first round is over. It is so cute I'm going to name my first-born after it.
