In Levikland, there are coins worth 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 perplexii. A has twice as much money as B, who has twice as much as C, who has twice as much as D. How can this be, if everybody has two coins?

But it was fun to write the program. Even so, much of it was copy/pasted from an existing program. Also, a program actually proves the uniqueness of the solution.
