Given an input folder structure (tree), and a pointer to a directory (node) within that folder structure, the program should output the full path to the directory the pointer is pointing at. Alternatively, an actual file system could be used.

The Challenge:
For an input of one letter X (upper or lower case from A to Z) and one digit N (0-9) print the corresponding letter X made of N * X.
The letter has to be from this list:
AAA BBBB CCCC DDDD EEEEE FFFFF GGG H H
A A B B C D ...
Find the index of the largest number in N(6<=N<=100), if you're given the value of index of 3rd and 4th largest numbers on every input query of 5 distinct indices.
Example:
For an ascending sequence
Output: Input:
6(Total number of indices)
1 2 3 4 5

Two kids stand over a board of 100 sweets, each with a number from 1-100 drawn on it. They try to eat as many of them as they can and keeping a track of the running total. For example if a kid eats 5,7 and 10 then their running total is 5*7*10 = 350.
The winner is the kid with the highest tota...
@NewMainPosts This contest seems odd, to say the least. I need more info. How are the kids eating candies? Is it alternating turns? If so, player one has a huge advantage. If it's a free-for-all grab-and-smash, the faster kid wins. If the point is to make a kid sick, kudos. If it's to have anything to do with math.... that's unfortunate.
@Geobits Also the example given "194 is only possible with 97 and 2, but the other kid must have eaten 2" clearly must depend on picking order somehow.
so how few numbers in the range 1-100 does one have to pick to ensure that the product of the chosen numbers is larger than the product of all remaining numbers?
also @quartata apparently weird things happen when casting an unsigned integer >2^31-1 to a double, do you know why this happen :| like this Double::(UInt32::1 << UInt32::31) emits 0x41E0000000000000 which is completely different value and bit format
@flawr Hrm. Two possibilities I can think of: 1) I changed the permalink URL format and this still broke despite my attempt to provide backwards compatibility (or maybe that was just for VarLife) or 2) the text files corresponding to that permalink got deleted for whatever reason at some point.
Looks like the permalink format is the same so it's probably the second.
Actually no, the text files are still there as determined by SSHing to it. Wot.
