An interesting programming challenge

[Colin Holgate]

I got a “nice try” because I mistyped the answer I (I typed 71393 instead of 71939). Here was my script (after many returns):



























on mouseUp
   put 0 into howmany
   put “the numbers they provided inside quotes" into numbers
   repeat with a = 1 to the number of items in numbers
      repeat with b = a to the number of items in numbers
         put item a to b of numbers into somenumbers
         if sum(somenumbers) > 31 then add 1 to howmany  
      end repeat
      put the number of items in numbers && a
   end repeat
   answer howmany
end mouseUp
