2 (4 points) You are to assign each of 420,000 individuals with a distinct (unique) k-character pattern/string involving the digits ('e' through '9'), select uppercase letters ('A' through 'z' excluding 'B', 'D', 'G', 'I', '0', 'Q', 's' and 'z') and special characters '@', '#' and '_', with the provision that the first (leftmost) of the k-character must not be one of the digits ('0' through '9¹). What is the minimum k that you will need? CAUTION: You will earn NO CREDITS if you simply indicate what minimum k is and not clearly show working (i.e., how you arrive at the minimum k). One can use Microsoft Excel to help evaluate expressions involving multiplication and number raised to some power. For example, to find the value of 56 x 1234, type the formula =56*123^4 into an Excel Worksheet cell and press Enter.
