I got a little intimidated looking at the problem set, because it's been a loooong time since I took math, but it really is mostly "can you loop through stuff until you come up with an answer?"
Yep. I tend to get stuck on "but what's the solution?" rather than "what am I practicing here?"
So with that in mind, I'm off to play with possible combinations of Hardison, Eliot, and Parker; they're better than McNuggets in so many ways. Thanks for posting your solution - it was a good clarifier when I was letting things get too complicated.
