in reply to Coding Challenge: Find 6 sided polygon covering 4x4 grid

This is a maths challenge, not a coding challenge. The big allure is coming up with the required insight how to generate solutions, and then how to express them in a program will be drudgery and comparatively trivial.

    I can't follow. ..

    Can you prove there is only one perfect solution?

    Otherwise you need code to check them all.

    If you know of better coding challenges feel free to post them. :)
