Let n be an odd natural number and a1, a2,..., an E {1,2,..., n} all distinct (that is
a; † a; for i # j). Prove, using the pigeonhole principle, that
x = (1 – a1) · (2 – a2) · ....· (n – an)
is even.
Remark: Pay attention that you may not choose the numbers a1, a2, . .., an, so showing
that this proposition holds for one particular choice of numbers is not sufficient.
