Note for OP

to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.Your last choice is going to overcount I feel, because when you cycle through the colours, some of the configurations will be the same, subject to a rotation by 72°
how do i even know that in exam 😭
oh wait
