Details of the Tiles Contest can be found at Tiles Contest.

The runcontest.m provides testsuite structure information.

Input: (urlfname, board)

fn='http://www.toobigforemail.com/cryptkeeper.toobig?nppmkc2=xyeffg&6cq_kc2=yae1d8&6cq_konmpb=y88ayxyx8xxy1xdyx'

Output: (number of tiles, nrows, ncols)
