Friday's quiz - TILES

Alex RJun 20 2025

Hello, everybody!

This is not a question but rather a challenge to have fun.

Using a combination of grey 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?

I'm posting this because challende can be solved in SQL in a really efficient and concise maner.

Oh, yes, only pure SQL solutions are accepted.

I'll post mine later today.
