Contrary to popular belief computer science is really incredibly creative It is a matter of taking the tools you have and solving the problem you are given or are interested in solving In essence it i

To solve the puzzle, let's start by organizing the given information:

Based on the clues:

1. Tyler's last name isn't Morgan. Tyler bought one piece less than the child who bought the Starbursts but spent $0.15 more.
2. Adam spent $0.35, which is the least amount. The child who bought the Reeses spent the most.
3. Megan Wilson spent $0.10 more than Emma and spent $0.60.
4. The amount spent by each child, from least to most, was the child who bought the M&Ms, the child whose last name is Morgan, the child who bought the Starbursts, and the child whose last name is Lopez.
5. Tyler's last name isn't Bose.
6. The child who bought 10 Snickers, whose last name isn't Bose, bought the largest quantity. The child who spent the most bought the smallest quantity.
7. The child who bought 7 M&Ms had 2 more pieces than the child who got the Reeses.

Let's represent the information in a table format:

| Child | Last Name | Favorite Candy | Quantity | Amount Spent | |---------|-----------|----------------|----------|--------------| | Tyler | | | | | | Adam | | | | | | Megan | Wilson | | | | | Emma | | | | |

From the clues, we can deduce the following:

1. Tyler's favorite candy is not Starbursts. So, Tyler's favorite candy is either Reeses, M&Ms, or Snickers.
2. Adam spent $0.35, which is the least amount. So, Adam didn't buy Starbursts.
3. Megan Wilson spent $0.60, which is $0.10 more than Emma. So, Emma spent $0.50.
4. The amount spent by each child, from least to most, was the child who bought the M&Ms, the child whose last name is Morgan, the child who bought the Starbursts, and the child whose last name is Lopez. Based on this, we can identify the following:
   • The child who bought the M&Ms spent the least, so it must be Adam who spent $0.35.
   • The child whose last name is Morgan spent more than Adam but less than the child who bought Starbursts. Since Tyler's last name isn't Morgan, it must be Emma or Megan.
   • The child who bought Starbursts spent more than the child whose last name is Morgan but less than the child whose last name is Lopez. Since Tyler's last name isn't Morgan, it must be Emma or Megan. But Megan Wilson spent $0.60, so Emma must be the one who bought Starbursts.
   • Finally, Megan Wilson's last name is Lopez.

Updating the table:

| Child | Last Name | Favorite Candy | Quantity | Amount Spent | |---------|-----------|----------------|----------|--------------| | Tyler | | Reeses | | | | Adam | | M&Ms | | $0.35 | | Megan | Lopez | Starbursts | | $0.60 | | Emma | | | | $0.50 |

Now, let's continue with the remaining clues:

5. Tyler's last name isn't Bose. So, Tyler's last name must be Morgan.
6. The child who bought 10 Snickers, whose last name isn't Bose, bought the largest quantity. The child who spent the most bought the smallest quantity.
   • Emma can't be the one who bought Snickers since her last name isn't Bose. So, it must be Tyler who bought 10 Snickers.
   • The child who spent the most, Megan, bought the smallest quantity. So, Emma must be the one who spent the most.

Updating the table:

| Child | Last Name | Favorite Candy | Quantity | Amount Spent | |---------|-----------|----------------|----------|--------------| | Tyler | Morgan | Reeses | | | | Adam | | M&Ms | | $0.35 | | Megan | Lopez | Starbursts | | $0.60 | | Emma | | | Snickers | $0.50 |

7. The child who bought 7 M&Ms had 2 more pieces than the child who got the Reeses.
   • Adam bought M&Ms, so he bought 7 M&Ms.
   • The child who got Reeses had 5 pieces.

Updating the table:

| Child | Last Name | Favorite Candy | Quantity | Amount Spent | |---------|-----------|----------------|----------|--------------| | Tyler | Morgan | Reeses | | | | Adam | | M&Ms | 7 | $0.35 | | Megan | Lopez | Starbursts | | $0.60 | | Emma | | | Snickers | $0.50 |

From the remaining information, we can infer:

1. Tyler, whose last name isn't Morgan, bought one piece less than the child who bought Starbursts but spent $0.15 more.
   • Tyler bought 4 Starbursts since he bought one piece less than the child who bought Starbursts.
   • Tyler spent $0.75 since he spent $0.15 more than the child who bought Starbursts.
2. Megan Wilson spent $0.10 more than Emma and spent $0.60.
   • Emma spent $0.50, so Megan Wilson spent $0.60.

Updating the table:

| Child | Last Name | Favorite Candy | Quantity | Amount Spent | |---------|-----------|----------------|----------|--------------| | Tyler | Morgan | Reeses | | $0.75 | | Adam | | M&Ms | 7 | $0.35 | | Megan | Lopez | Starbursts | 4 | $0.60 | | Emma | | | Snickers | $0.50 |

Let's summarize the information:

• Tyler Morgan's favorite candy is Reeses, and he spent $0.75.
• Adam's favorite candy is M&Ms, and he bought 7 pieces for $0.35.
• Megan Lopez's favorite candy is Starbursts, and she bought 4 pieces for $0.60.
• Emma's favorite candy is Snickers, and she spent $0.50.

Thus, we have solved the puzzle and determined each child's full name, favorite candy, quantity bought, and amount spent.
