| Nov 20, 2018 at 6:02 | comment | added | MattClarke | I'm guessing you want all the numbers to be non-negative, otherwise the answer is negative infinity. And I'm guessing you want all the numbers to be integers, otherwise we could pick a collection of numbers infinitesimally greater than 0 and get the total to be something that's also indistinguisable from zero. I can't guess if you want to allow one ball to be numbered 0. | |
