Clearly, no leading zeros.

Charlie:
Heaven forbid, I would never complain that somebody elected to tackle a problem analytically. But I am curious why you didn't write a computer program. Feeling whimsical? I seems to me that you could code this one with one hand tied behind your back. Is it just that it would be too easy?
