Hey, I just solved the Tree Height Measurement task, and enjoyed it as well. Despite the involvement of trigonometry (I am terrible at all forms of mathematics), it wasn't a headache like I thought it would be. I actually enjoyed researching the things required to solve the problem. Thanks again for a great learning experience!

Oh, also, have you considered creating a chemistry-related problem, such as adding different chemicals together, deciphering formulas, etc? I think it would be cool to have some science-related problems.

Ha yeh, why not finding the stoichiometric ratios in chemical reactions?

Hah, Cristopher and Nicolas - thanks for ideas... Well, it seems I need to fetch beginners schoolbook on chemistry and renew my knowledge. I had trouble recollecting the word "stoichiometry" (I'm curious why in Russian it is instead spelled "stechiometry")... :)

Another trouble would be to find problems which allow randomized input data. Though probably I can invent at least few.

By the way, Christopher, have you already solved a pair of music-related problems we have? :D
