+# Minesweeper
+
+Add the numbers to a minesweeper board.
+
+Minesweeper is a popular game where the user has to find the mines using
+numeric hints that indicate how many mines are directly adjacent
+(horizontally, vertically, diagonally) to a square.
+
+In this exercise you have to create some code that counts the number of
+mines adjacent to a square and transforms boards like this (where `*`
+indicates a mine):
+
+    +-----+
+    | * * |
+    |  *  |
+    |  *  |
+    |     |
+    +-----+
+
+into this:
+
+    +-----+
+    |1*3*1|
+    |13*31|
+    | 2*2 |
+    | 111 |
+    +-----+

+# Nucleotide Count
+
+Given a DNA string, compute how many times each nucleotide occurs in the string.
+
+DNA is represented by an alphabet of the following symbols: 'A', 'C',
+'G', and 'T'.
+
+Each symbol represents a nucleotide, which is a fancy name for the
+particular molecules that happen to make up a large part of DNA.
+
+Shortest intro to biochemistry EVAR:
+
+- twigs are to birds nests as
+- nucleotides are to DNA and RNA as
+- amino acids are to proteins as
+- sugar is to starch as
+- oh crap lipids
+
+I'm not going to talk about lipids because they're crazy complex.
+
+So back to nucleotides.
+
+DNA contains four types of them: adenine (`A`), cytosine (`C`), guanine
+(`G`), and thymine (`T`).
+
+RNA contains a slightly different set of nucleotides, but we don't care
+about that for now.

+# Phone Number
+
+Clean up user-entered phone numbers so that they can be sent SMS messages.
+
+The **North American Numbering Plan (NANP)** is a telephone numbering system used by many countries in North America like the United States, Canada or Bermuda. All NANP-countries share the same international country code: `1`.
+
+NANP numbers are ten-digit numbers consisting of a three-digit Numbering Plan Area code, commonly known as *area code*, followed by a seven-digit local number. The first three digits of the local number represent the *exchange code*, followed by the unique four-digit number which is the *subscriber number*.
+
+
+The format is usually represented as
+```
+(NXX)-NXX-XXXX
+```
+where `N` is any digit from 2 through 9 and `X` is any digit from 0 through 9.
+
+Your task is to clean up differently formated telephone numbers by removing punctuation and the country code (1) if present.
+
+For example, the inputs
+- `+1 (613)-995-0253`
+- `613-995-0253`
+- `1 613 995 0253`
+- `613.995.0253`
+
+should all produce the output
+
+`6139950253`
+
+**Note:** As this exercise only deals with telephone numbers used in NANP-countries, only 1 is considered a valid country code.

+# Point Mutations
+
+Calculate the Hamming difference between two DNA strands.
+
+A mutation is simply a mistake that occurs during the creation or
+copying of a nucleic acid, in particular DNA. Because nucleic acids are
+vital to cellular functions, mutations tend to cause a ripple effect
+throughout the cell. Although mutations are technically mistakes, a very
+rare mutation may equip the cell with a beneficial attribute. In fact,
+the macro effects of evolution are attributable by the accumulated
+result of beneficial microscopic mutations over many generations.
+
+The simplest and most common type of nucleic acid mutation is a point
+mutation, which replaces one base with another at a single nucleotide.
+
+By counting the number of differences between two homologous DNA strands
+taken from different genomes with a common ancestor, we get a measure of
+the minimum number of point mutations that could have occurred on the
+evolutionary path between the two strands.
+
+This is called the 'Hamming distance'
+
+    GAGCCTACTAACGGGAT
+    CATCGTAATGACGGCCT
+    ^ ^ ^  ^ ^    ^^
+
+The Hamming distance between these two DNA strands is 7.
+
+# Implementation notes
+
+The Hamming distance is only defined for sequences of equal length. Hence you
+may assume that only sequences of equal length will be passed to your hamming
+distance function.
+
+**Note: This problem is deprecated, replaced by the one called `hamming`.**

+# Prime Factors
+
+Compute the prime factors of a given natural number.
+
+A prime number is only evenly divisible by itself and 1.
+
+Note that 1 is not a prime number.
+
+## Example
+
+What are the prime factors of 60?
+
+- Our first divisor is 2. 2 goes into 60, leaving 30.
+- 2 goes into 30, leaving 15.
+  - 2 doesn't go cleanly into 15. So let's move on to our next divisor, 3.
+- 3 goes cleanly into 15, leaving 5.
+  - 3 does not go cleanly into 5. The next possible factor is 4.
+  - 4 does not go cleanly into 5. The next possible factor is 5.
+- 5 does go cleanly into 5.
+- We're left only with 1, so now, we're done.
+
+Our successful divisors in that computation represent the list of prime
+factors of 60: 2, 2, 3, and 5.
+
+You can check this yourself:
+
+- 2 * 2 * 3 * 5
+- = 4 * 15
+- = 60
+- Success!
