The
EAN-13
(EEuropean
Arti-cle
Numbering)
is
a
barcode
used
by
trade
and
industry
to
uniquely
identify
objects
and
be
read
by
a
scanner.
This
bar-code
consists
of
13
digits
(integers
between
0
and
9
)
,
the
last
one
being
a
control
key
calculated
from
the
previous
12
digits.
A
barcode
is
symbolized
by
the
following
table
:
.
.
.
where
the
thirteen
digits
making
up
the
barcode
have
been
carried.
The
number
C
is
the
verification
key.
To
determine
this,
we
calculate:
S
=
a
1
+
a

a

a

+
a

+
a

+
a
10
+
a

.
C
is
then
the
number
such
that
S
+
C
is
a
multiple
of
10
.

is
code
4971850187820
valid?

Determine
C
for
the
code

A
digit
has
been
replaced
with

in
the

.
What
value
should
be
given
to
x
for
this
code
to
be
valid?

The
code
3742278085985
is
not
valid.
What
can
be
the
values
of
the
first
two

Game
of
darts
We
play
darts
at
a
dartboard
with
three
areas
:
one
at
5
points,
one
at
7
points,
and
one
at
11
points.
We
are
inter-ested
in
the
different
possible
scores,
as
the
number
of
darts
is
not
limited.
For
example,
30
is
a
possible
score
since
:
30
=
11
+
7
+
7
+
5

are
said
to
be
identical
if,
for
each

each

For

corresponding

:
7+5+5+11

In
the
city
of
Nîmes,
work
has
led
to
the
discovery
of
a
magnificent
Roman
mosaic
from
the
early
third
century,
known
as
ˇmosaic
of
Penthéeı.
This
mo-saic
consists
of
several
figured
panels
of

separated
by

This

and
the
ability
to
assemble
arcs
of

into
various

ultimately
composing
a

In

extracted
from

an
