You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
Looking in this problem, I think that its major destination is to help you to kill your time.
Its secondary destination is to keep your mind active during that time you kill your time . . .
If you just solved/answered all other questions, you can be proud by yourself: you successfully got both destinations.
Regarding the last, unresolved question, I think that its destination is to help you to kill your time even more and even better . . .
(if you want it and if you agree to do it . . . )
I do not see any other reason in it . . .
