Let M(n) be the set of all the points (x 1, x 2,..., x n)∈E n such that x i∈{0,1,2} for each i= 1, 2,..., n and let f(n) be the cardinality of a largest subset of M(n) containing no three distinct collinear points. L. moser [4] asked for a proof of the inequality Let us consider the set Sn of those points (x 1x 2,..., x n)∈M(n) which satisfy |{i:X i= 1}| = [(n +1)/3]. As S n is a subset of the sphere with center at (1, 1,..., 1) and radius (n-[(n+1)/3])1/2, no three distinct points of S n are collinear. Thus we have 1
