How many rabbits and how many chickens do we have?
We count 35 heads and 94 legs among the chickens and rabbits in a farm.
How many rabbits and how many chickens do we have?
Solution
def solve(numheads,numlegs):
ns='No solutions!'
for i in range(numheads+1):
j=numheads-i
if 2i+4j==numlegs:
return i,j
return ns,ns
numheads=35
numlegs=94
solutions=solve(numheads,numlegs)
print solutions
ns='No solutions!'
for i in range(numheads+1):

if 2i+4j==numlegs:
return i,j
return ns,ns
numheads=35
numlegs=94
solutions=solve(numheads,numlegs)
print solutions
