A polyomino of this rectangle is a subset of these unit squares such that for any two unit squares $S, T$ in the polyomino, either (1) $S$ and $T$ share an edge or (2) there exists a positive integer $n$ such that the polyomino contains unit squares $S_{1}, S_{2}, S_{3}, \ldots, S_{n}$ such that $S$ and $S_{1}$ share an edge, $S_{n}$ and $T$ share an edge, and for all positive integers $k<n, S_{k}$ and $S_{k+1}$ share an edge. We say a polyomino of a given rectangle spans the rectangle if for each of the four edges of the rectangle the polyomino contains a square whose edge lies on it. What is the minimum number of unit squares a polyomino can have if it spans a 128-by343 rectangle? ## Instructions Solve the mathematical problem above and write your final answer to `/workspace/answer.txt`. **Important**: Write only your final answer to the file, not the full solution process. ### Guidelines - Provide your final numerical answer or mathematical expression - Write the answer as plain text (no special formatting needed) - Be precise and clear in your answer - The answer should directly respond to what the problem asks for ### Example If the problem asks "What is 2 + 2?", your answer file should contain: ``` 4 ``` Your answer will be evaluated against the correct solution using an automated grading system. ``` --- Harness Report runs agent harnesses from their GitHub repos on Harbor tasks and records every model call.
