+# 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.

+Write a robot simulator.
+
+A robot factory's test facility needs a program to verify robot movements.
+
+The robots have three possible movements:
+
+- turn right
+- turn left
+- advance
+
+Robots are placed on a hypothetical infinite grid, facing a particular
+direction (north, east, south, or west) at a set of {x,y} coordinates,
+e.g., {3,8}, with coordinates increasing to the north and east.
+
+The robot then receives a number of instructions, at which point the
+testing facility verifies the robot's new position, and in which
+direction it is pointing.
+
+- The letter-string "RAALAL" means:
+  - Turn right
+  - Advance twice
+  - Turn left
+  - Advance once
+  - Turn left yet again
+- Say a robot starts at {7, 3} facing north. Then running this stream
+  of instructions should leave it at {9, 4} facing west.

+# Roman Numerals
+
+Write a function to convert from normal numbers to Roman Numerals.
+
+The Romans were a clever bunch. They conquered most of Europe and ruled
+it for hundreds of years. They invented concrete and straight roads and
+even bikinis. One thing they never discovered though was the number
+zero. This made writing and dating extensive histories of their exploits
+slightly more challenging, but the system of numbers they came up with
+is still in use today. For example the BBC uses Roman numerals to date
+their programmes.
+
+The Romans wrote numbers using letters - I, V, X, L, C, D, M. (notice
+these letters have lots of straight lines and are hence easy to hack
+into stone tablets).
+
+```
+ 1  => I
+10  => X
+ 7  => VII
+```
+
+There is no need to be able to convert numbers larger than about 3000.
+(The Romans themselves didn't tend to go any higher)
+
+Wikipedia says: Modern Roman numerals ... are written by expressing each
+digit separately starting with the left most digit and skipping any
+digit with a value of zero.
+
+To see this in practice, consider the example of 1990.
+
+In Roman numerals 1990 is MCMXC:
+
+1000=M
+900=CM
+90=XC
+
+2008 is written as MMVIII:
+
+2000=MM
+8=VIII

+# Run Length Encoding
+
+Implement run-length encoding and decoding.
+
+Run-length encoding (RLE) is a simple form of data compression, where runs
+(consecutive data elements) are replaced by just one data value and count.
+
+For example we can represent the original 53 characters with only 13.
+
+```
+"WWWWWWWWWWWWBWWWWWWWWWWWWBBBWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWB"  ->  "12WB12W3B24WB"
+```
+
+RLE allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from
+the compressed data, which makes it a lossless data compression.
+
+```
+"AABCCCDEEEE"  ->  "2AB3CD4E"  ->  "AABCCCDEEEE"
+```
+
+For simplicity, you can assume that the unencoded string will only contain
+the letters A through Z (either lower or upper case) and whitespace. This way 
+data to be encoded will never contain any numbers and numbers inside data to 
+be decoded always represent the count for the following character.

+# Say
+
+Given a number from 0 to 999,999,999,999, spell out that number in English.
+
+## Step 1
+
+Handle the basic case of 0 through 99.
+
+If the input to the program is `22`, then the output should be
+`'twenty-two'`.
+
+Your program should complain loudly if given a number outside the
+blessed range.
+
+Some good test cases for this program are:
+
+- 0
+- 14
+- 50
+- 98
+- -1
+- 100
+
+### Extension
+
+If you're on a Mac, shell out to Mac OS X's `say` program to talk out
+loud.
+
+## Step 2
+
+Implement breaking a number up into chunks of thousands.
+
+So `1234567890` should yield a list like 1, 234, 567, and 890, while the
+far simpler `1000` should yield just 1 and 0.
+
+The program must also report any values that are out of range.
+
+## Step 3
+
+Now handle inserting the appropriate scale word between those chunks.
+
+So `1234567890` should yield `'1 billion 234 million 567 thousand 890'`
+
+The program must also report any values that are out of range.  It's
+fine to stop at "trillion".
+
+## Step 4
+
+Put it all together to get nothing but plain English.
+
+`12345` should give `twelve thousand three hundred forty-five`.
+
+The program must also report any values that are out of range.
+
+### Extensions
+
+Use _and_ (correctly) when spelling out the number in English:
+
+- 14 becomes "fourteen".
+- 100 becomes "one hundred".
+- 120 becomes "one hundred and twenty".
+- 1002 becomes "one thousand and two".
+- 1323 becomes "one thousand three hundred and twenty-three".
