CODECHEF Bytelandian gold coins (COINS) in C and Python

[ka1shi]

This is a(n):

• [x] New algorithm
• [ ] Update to an existing algorithm
• [ ] Error
• [x] Proposal to the Repository

Details: In Byteland they have a very strange monetary system.

Each Bytelandian gold coin has an integer number written on it. A coin n can be exchanged in a bank into three coins: n/2, n/3 and n/4. But these numbers are all rounded down (the banks have to make a profit).

You can also sell Bytelandian coins for American dollars. The exchange rate is 1:1. But you can not buy Bytelandian coins.

You have one gold coin. What is the maximum amount of American dollars you can get for it?

@abhijeet010304 if @ka1shi is working on this in a particular language, then they have every right to continue. You can contribute to this as well, as long as the programming language is different.
