to form a "chain."

A "chained" number is the number of chains in a particular

arrangement of a list. For example, arrange 3 P's and 5 Q's together to form

QPPQPQQQ

and mark it Q PP Q P QQQ . This one gives a "chained"

completed his round. Because of the short time period those scores shown on
the monitor, only the first 6 scores assigned by judges were seen and they were
8.9, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9, 9.1, and 8.6. The next screen showed the score received by

inserted between this sequence's original (k1)st and kth term (k 2). After all the
insertions, the new series would look like {1, 2, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 1, 8, 1, 1, 1, 1,
