20 birds fly into a photographer’s studio: 8 starlings, 7 wagtails and 5 woodpeckers. Each time the photographer presses the shutter to take a photograph, one of the birds flies away and does not come back.

Definition A set is a collection of elements, containing only one copy of each element. The elements are not ordered, nor they are governed by any rule. We consider an empty set as a set too.
There is a set C consisting of n elements. How many sets can be constructed using the elements of C?

Given a natural number n you are allowed to perform two operations: "double up", namely get 2n from n, and "increase by 1", i.e. to get n+1 from n. Find the smallest amount of operations one needs to perform to get the number n from 1.

In a certain state, there are three types of citizens:

  • A fool considers everyone a fool and themselves smart;

There are 200 deputies in the High Government. The Prime Minister conducted an anonymous survey of High Government members, asking how many smart people are there in the High Government. After reading everyone’s response he could not find out the number of smart people. But then the only member who did not participate in the survey returned from the trip. They filled out a questionnaire about the entire Government including themselves and after reading it the Prime Minister understood everything. How many smart could there be in the High Government (including the traveller)?
