RE: Traditional German Xmas Puzzle: HP 42S Algorithm Challenge
It's a trick question - or badly worded :-)

The question asks: "What is the minimum number of elves Waldemar needs to bring with him to complete the trip?"

And the answer is zero because he can have elves come out to meet him, bringing food with them, rather than bring the elves along with him. :-p

(The answer is the same though, just in reverse!)
