Need Help??

All my socks, both two types of "normal" socks, my white badminton sporting socks, and several bright-colored skiing sock pairs do not just come in pairs: they are all seamless and have a right-fit and a left-fit. All these math riddles assume left and right socks to be equal.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

they are all seamless and have a right-fit and a left-fit. You can turn a left-fit into a right-fit and vice versa, if you treat them as Inside-Out-Objects. More math ;-) perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'	[reply]
