\begin{quote} One of the most important parts of research is learning how to
frame a question in a good way, a way
that highlights the key features of the problem and allows us to then
apply our tools to solve it. This is not easy,
and this is often the step that requires the most creativity. --Jamie

Greetings. Attached please find my letter of recommendation for
If you could confirm receipt that would be appreciated; if you need anything else please let me know. Thank you.
Once
you send a correct soln to any riddle on the page I'm happy to share the
password to the student/teacher corner, which has
comments on the problems, solutions, as well as good partial solutions and
discussions on the thought process.
Based on the referee report, the paper is not appropriate for JNT, and the author is encouraged to submit to another journal.
REFEREE REPORT:
The paper is a nice contribution, but as there are no new techniques / strong applications, given the large backlog JNT has I recommend it be sent elsewhere.

REFEREE REPORT:
The result and methods are too close to what exists in the literature to
rise to the level of a research article; however, if the author is
interested I woudl suggest they consider converting this to a submission
for the Fibonacci Quarterly's problem section. This would entail isolating
a good question from their results and publishing just that, inviting
readers to submit (assuming the problem editors feel the proposed problem
is appropriate). If no one submits a solution in a certain period of time,
I believe the journal then publishes solutions by the proposer.
The submitted paper is a good fit for the Fibonacci quarterly. It's on a
subject of interest to many of its readers. I give only a high level
assessment here: the arguments appear valid and the conclusions are
reasonable given the methods employed. If a more detailed report is able
to confirm the validity of the arguments, I support publication in the
journal.
