  RPS Sector Finder...
  wrote a little php script to find possible sectors for RPS

  still needs a bit of work to get duplicates out of output, but works ok.
  
  Input the total, first known number, 2nd known

  If you didn't know, Nardo has a pretty awesome greasemonkey script that does this:

  Yep, Nardo's script works like a charm.
  
  He could optimize it by removing no-longer valid combinations after visiting sectors, though.
  
  Simplified example:
  
  Let the sum of two primes be 16.
  This would give us the solutions 3+13 and 5+11
  
  We'd mark 3,5,11 and 13 on the sector map.
  
  Now we reach sector 3 and do not find anything, which means that we do not need to look at 13.

  I thought Nardo's script already did that. I could swear I've seen sectors loose their red even when I haven't found pieces yet just because I checked some other sector....

  The script does already do that.
