You start in room 37. You might be thinking "Why 37?", so I will explain this: "Why not?"
You need to find the way out of this place.
Of course, there is a lot of data that are encrypted in your way. Some of the data are... |
$f(1) = 549 = 1 * 100 + 450 - 1^2$<br>
$f(2) = 646 = 2 * 100 + 450 - 2^2$<br>
$f(10) = 1350 = 10 * 100 + 450 - 10^2$<br>
$f(100) = 450 = 100 * 100 + 450 - 100^2$
So, $f(x) = 100x + 450 - x^2$, and $f(75) = 2325$.
