I would not know about the party thing, I'm more of the rioting kind of guy ;-)
FYI I finished my degree in 82 and am now just a plain applications programmer
with a bad case of the "forgets".

This problem MAY be trivial to you, but I have been unable to solve it.  That's
why I asked for help.  Why don't you show me what a smart boy you are and
code the solution into Pascal for me.  I can also read Fortran, C, COBOL,
BASIC, 80x86 & 680x0 Assembly.  Use what ever you like, your pick.
