Given AM's interest, I will hold off until at least Friday at 6pm to post solutions.

When posting a candidate solution, please show your work, and specify whether you are solving for:
  • Circle or sphere?
  • Mean length or mean square length?
  • Both, one, or none of the endpoints constrained to the boundary?
