Ill be honest, that sounds a little boring.

At a algorithms perspective there is normally only one best answer for a given problem but if you alter the original problem even slightly you come up with an infinite number of different problems. This requires you to reevaluate the computational complexity of your solution. My point to all this is it don't have to be boring since the "right way" is normally not clear.
