Problem
A collection of 8 cubes consists of one cube with edge-length
for each integer
A tower is to be built using all 8 cubes according to the rules:
- Any cube may be the bottom cube in the tower.
- The cube immediately on top of a cube with edge-length
must have edge-length at most 
Let
be the number of different towers than can be constructed. What is the remainder when
is divided by 1000?
