13 GoGo Tokens are put on some squares of an 8 x 8 grid to make a pattern, such as the one shown in this diagram. ∞ 7 4 33 ● ● ● ● ● ●● ● ● 2 1 A B C D E F G H We try to remove the tokens in a sequence of clearing steps. A clearing step consists of choosing a row or a column which contains only 1 or 2 tokens and removing them. For example, we cannot initially remove all tokens from column D. But we can first clear row 5 and then, in some later step, remove the two remaining tokens in column D. If all tokens in a pattern can be removed from the grid using some sequence of allowable steps, then the pattern is called clearable. The above pattern is clearable because we can remove all tokens using the following sequence of 13 allowable steps (among other possibilities): 2, E, 8, G, 7, F, D, 5, 6, 3, 4, A, 1. These 13 steps are represented by arrows numbered 1 to 13 in the fol- lowing diagram.
