In the problem set, it puts a limit of 80 characters on
title lines. You may assume that this limit applies to Profiles
as well, and has the side effect of limiting the possible
number of words.

Alphabetizing is not mentioned anywhere in the problem statement - you
may assume that it is not part of the problem, but a fluke of
the input/output.

"Without Spaces" refers to the number list only. Although it isn't
explicitly mentioned in the text, the single space after the colon
is correct, and you should include it in your output.

Real judges would probably refuse to answer, since the answer is in the
problem, albeit obliquely.

The problem says "They move through the net at the same speed" and
in the output section, says that two events can happen at the same
time. From this, you can glean that they move simultaneously. It
also says that Lisper dies if it ATTEMPTS to move, not after it moves
on the next impulse, but on the moving impulse. Thus, they happen at the
same time.

Netwars correct at 120 minutes with 1 judged run.

Your answer actually differs with the Judge solution
obtained from the SOuth Pacific contest, but I've
decided that their answer is wrong.

Good question.

If a word occurs twice in a Profile, then a Title will match it ONLY
if the word apprears twice in the Title, within the distance specified
in the Profile.

So,

P: 0 fred fred

would NOT match

T: fred

it would also NOT match

T: fred sam fred

it WOULD match

T: sam fred fred sam
