   Without any further constraints this problem is   
   absurdly easy.   
      
   If you let the reader choose the constraints, there   
   appears to be no reason to choose any constraints   
   that make the problem harder.  On the contrary,   
   imposing additional constraints seems artificial.   
      
   So please let us know what additional constraints   
   you have in mind.  I daresay mind reading is not in   
   the skill set of anyone reading these postings.
