 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The number sequence game starts with a sequence S of N numbers written on a line. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Two players alternate turns. At his turn, a player must select and remove either the first or the last number remaining in the sequence. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The player score is the sum of all the numbers he has taken. Each player attempts to maximize his own sum. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | If N = 4 and S = {1, 2, 10, 3}, then each player maximizes his score as follows: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Player 1: removes the first number (1) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Player 2: removes the last number from the remaining sequence (3) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Player 1: removes the last number from the remaining sequence (10) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Player 2: removes the remaining number (2) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Player 1 score is 1 + 10 = 11. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Let F(N) be the score of player 1 if both players follow the optimal strategy for the sequence S = {s1, s2, ..., sN} defined as: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | s1 = 0 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | si+1 = (si2 + 45) modulo 1 000 000 007 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The sequence begins with S = {0, 45, 2070, 4284945, 753524550, 478107844, 894218625, ...}. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | You are given F(2) = 45, F(4) = 4284990, F(100) = 26365463243, F(104) = 2495838522951. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Find F(108). | ||
