Too much PURE MATH!!! in Challenges

More so in the C# challenges. Some of them are just ridiculous, and not do able in the timeframe without a calculator. And the fact that it can be completed with a calculator defeats the purpose. Can we have some peer review process in the user submitted questions for challenges? I find it incredibly pointless to practice doing arithmetics really really fast...

(multiple answer) (a&&b)||(b||a&&(a||b)) a||b&&(a&&b||(a||b)) a&&b&&(a||b&&(b&&a)) (a||b)&&(a&&b||(a&&b)) Note : These options are original ones. I created them to express the size of the original ones. Coming to the point, how can someone answer such questions when there is a time limit? And, there is nothing related to c# in it. I mean, it works the same in c, c++, Java, ...

I would like more algorithmic questions, or clever exploits of language specific functionalities.
