Solve the following cryptarithmetic problem.   L E F T + L E F T + L E F T _ _ _ _ _ R I G H T As we know, a cryptarithmetic problem is a constraint satisfaction problem in which each letter must be assigned to a different number to make the arithmetic problem work out correctly.  For this problem, each letter represents a number from 0 to 9. You may solve this by hand, using software such as Excel, or write a program to solve it.  You will need to show your work which you will submit for question number 2. Hint: One solution makes R represent 0, but there are other solutions.  Also note that the autograder has only one correct answer.  There are other correct answers, and the instructor will manually grade it in the event that the autograder grades it wrong. Fill in your answers here:      L=[L] E=[E] F=[F] T=[T] R=[R] I=[I] G=[G] H=[H]  and T must be the same value as in the word LEFT. (This problem comes from the saying “Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three lefts do”.)
