+! DESCRIPTION
+! -----------
+
+! Using a combination of black square tiles and oblong tiles chosen
+! from: red tiles measuring two units, green tiles measuring three
+! units, and blue tiles measuring four units, it is possible to tile a
+! row measuring five units in length in exactly fifteen different ways.
+
+!  How many ways can a row measuring fifty units in length be tiled?
+
+! SOLUTION
+! --------
+
+! This solution uses a simple dynamic programming approach using the
+! following recurence relation
+
+! ways(i) = 1 | i <= 0
+! ways(i) = ways(i-4) + ways(i-3) + ways(i-2) + ways(i-1)
