| back to board | SEE THE PROBLEMS Posted by sultan  19 Aug 2002 15:16what will be the answer ofthe following
 and please let me know why
 1) 1 2 -1 3
 2) 1 2 0 4
 3) -1 -2 3 0
You haven't understood the problem..see here :) Hi!This problem is not very hard, if you understand it. So, the cards
 are numerated in this way:
 the first card has 0 and 1 on it's two sides, the second has 1 and 2,
 the third has 2 and 3...and so on..the n-th card has n-1 and n on its
 both sides - all the numbers are positive!!!!
 So, the your first and third  tests are incorect - such an input will
 not ocure, and the answer for the second is YES, because:
 First NICK has taken the second card(with numbers 1 and 2), after
 that the third card(with numbers 2 and 3), after that the first card
 (with numbers 0 and 1) and on the end the forth card(with numbers 4
 and 5). See that he says one of the two numbers writen on the card
 and each card is taken no more than once!
 I hope, this will help :)
 Bye!
 from Vlado
