Usually hand-written stars are drawn in connected, but not repeated, line segments. For example, a 5-point star is drawn as such - line segments AC, CE, EB, BD, DA. The segments must always alternate a constant number of points (in the above case, skipping 1 point in between).
Given the following info:
1)there is only 1 way to draw a 5-point star
2)there is NO way to draw a 6-point star (in continuous lines, that is)
3)there are 2 ways to draw a 7-point star
how many different ways are there to draw a 1000-point star?
