17×17 4-coloring with no monochromatic rectangles. ⇒

This is a pretty interesting problem that I had not heard about before. Basically, can you colour a 17×17 grid so that any 4 points you pick that form a rectangle don’t all share the same colour.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
