Please, do yourself a favour and watch this 70s video on how the proteins are assembled using DNA.
Either you already know that or you have no clue what's happening, I'm flabbergasted. It was recommended to me from an online biology course I'm taking with the MIT.
Which of the two Copperplate variations on the double-f do each of you prefer (try to imagine them once I practice more if you can).

@xuv How did you get mastodon installed at work?
Trying a new variation on my Copperplate script. Im trying a double-f variation that also makes for a. Interesting lead in to the "r" in my first name. Thoughts?
Also the capital F is new but still needs some work.

This was a lot of fun decided to do the problem by hand using non brute Force techniques. Attached are all the steps I used to solve the problem including the final solution on the last page.
Total number of coconuts is 3,121 at the start. The number of coconuts they ended up with was the following: 828, 703, 603, 523, 459
If your following the pages I attached the order in which you follow them is "knowns/reduce" then "All valid values" then "final solution"
@Absinthe @freemo I forked the repo and added my solution here: https://git.qoto.org/zingbretsen/coconuts/blob/master/coco.py
It should solve the 5 person problem when run as-is, but it could be run for any number of people. I should probably have added that as a command line argument.
It works backwards from possible ending amounts, but is somewhat selective in the numbers it tries. e.g., for the 5 person case, we know that the ending pile must be divisible by both 4 and 5, so the final pile will be a multiple of 20. In addition to that, we know that 5/4 + 1 of the ending pile must be divisible by 5, so 60 is the lowest number that would work for the first round of stepping backwards.
There is a regular pattern that seems to work for all of the numbers of people I tested, not just 5, so we can reduce the search space pretty significantly. For the 5 person problem, I only have to test 13 numbers before finding the answer.

Here is a link to the text description of the problem.

That link is to the repo, and my solution is in it as well.
After a day worth of practice I have incorporated a few. New style idea I to my signature.
