The first 12 digits of pi are 314159265358. We can make these digits into an expression evaluating to 27182 (first 5 digits of e) as follows: 3141 * 5 / 9 * 26 / 5 * 3 - 5 * 8 = 27182 or 3 + 1 - 415 * 92 + 65358 = 27182 Notice that the order of the input digits is not changed. Operators (+,-,/, or *) are simply inserted to create the expression. Write a function to take a list of numbers and a target, and return all the ways that those numbers can be formed into expressions evaluating to the target For example: f("314159265358", 27182) should print: 3 + 1 - 415 * 92 + 65358 = 27182 3 * 1 + 4 * 159 + 26535 + 8 = 27182 3 / 1 + 4 * 159 + 26535 + 8 = 27182 3 * 14 * 15 + 9 + 26535 + 8 = 27182 3141 * 5 / 9 * 26 / 5 * 3 - 5 * 8 = 27182

There was one question that stood out as a sort of "entrapment" question. Knowing the priorities assumed by Front of House Employees, I was given three or four scenarios that were all taking place at the same time. The scenarios were along the lines of: 'There is food to be put out', 'There are customers in line', 'The men's bathroom is overflowing', etc. The question was to choose which of the situations to resolve first.
