1212.2from the same pen as 919.1...HERON::BUCHANANcombinatorial bomb squadWed Mar 28 1990 15:559
	Yes, that's it.   Strange:  I'd never thought of this packing
algorirhm as having a simple quadratic form until it was pointed out
to me.

	Clearly there's another solution with x <-> y.   Any others?
(I dunno, and haven't looked.)

Regards,
Andrew.

        Yes, same here.  I had just assumed it would involve some
        kind of "if ... then formula_1 else formula_2"
        definition.
