FINAL STUMPER

C

The pool's final exam: recognising, from a drawing, the rule that produced it.

The inverse exercise of the first rush. This time the program receives a rectangle drawn in characters and must work out which drawing rules could have produced it, along with its dimensions. It is an exercise in deduction: instead of applying a rule, you have to recognise it.

A rush3 binary reading an ASCII figure from standard input and deducing the name and dimensions of the corresponding drawing rule.
