+# 14
+
+This was nice! Similar to the Lanterfish one. The naive way is to have a big string, but that becomes unfeasible quickly.
+
+The solution was to keep track of the number of combinations available and at the end divide by 2 the counted elements. Rounding up so that the first and last element is not neglected as they are not doubled.
