'''Author Anurag Kumar(mailto:[email protected])

Module to solve a classic ancient Chinese puzzle:
We count 35 heads and 94 legs among the chickens and rabbits in a farm.
How many rabbits and how many chickens do we have?


'''
def solve(numheads,numlegs):
ns='No solutions!'
for i in range(numheads+1):
j=numheads-i
if 2*i+4*j==numlegs:
return i,j
return ns,ns

if __name__=="__main__":
numheads=35
numlegs=94

solutions=solve(numheads,numlegs)
print(solutions)
