I fiddled with the problem for a couple of hours and never got my thinking far enough "out of the box" to do any good.

At the beginning it was hard for me, too. Although I early found out, that the number of "1" is what counts, I first wanted to fabricate help functions for the conditions no"1", one"1" and two"1". But I miserably failed, because, whatever I tried, I always needed three damned inverters for doing this.

Only when I tried to count the "1" in a binary counter and to use the two digits of this counter as help functions, I was happy to see, how simple the realisation was and that only two inverters were needed. So, you see, I was in luck...
