That's badass. Solve it deadpan, then once the answer has been presented, finish with "this obviously presupposes that there are enough overlords" or something to that effect.

Cool professor, dude.

This is totally awesome.

But don't assume your professor made up that question though! It could've been written by a bored TA.

I cracked up at "challenging your professor to a SC2 match over your grades."

Hahaha.

I would totally just write a bullshit answer about the lore of starcraft and get brownie points.

Then just write the answer in the corner in small print, with a box around that.

Hahaha, it is a trick question, if you try to put the boundaries he wants you wouldn't get anything, you need to prove a stronger statement.

Anyhow, it is easy to show that:
The number of zlings after n+1 cycles is 200+600*2^n
The number of blings after n cycles is 200+600*2^n


2nd generation

200 zlings mate with 200 blings = 200 zlings and 200 blings

600 blings left over, so 300 pairs = 600 blings and 300 zlings.

total = 500 zlings and 800 blings, your formula doesn't work

Ah, sorry, saw it wrongly, I thought as if each bling made 2 blings and 1 zling. But that doesn't make it harder.

If you think it through you realize that it isn't strange at all that both perish in the process.
