OPM 2020 Problem 3
Given a subset of , we define its alternating sum in the following way: we order the elements of the subset in descending order and, starting with the largest, we alternately add and subtract the successive numbers. For example, the alternating sum of the set is . Determines the sum of the alternating sums of all subsets of with an odd number of elements.
