Captain Jerry 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2006 Well, I either haven't been around long enough (not likely) or I've been around too long (yeah, that's it) but I've never seen this! No time to work on it tonight, but being a programmer, it's got to be a fairly simple solution using a table charting algorithm... I'll let ya' know how long it took me ~ tomorrow!

becibear 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2006 To those dutch speaking, some nice exercises on this page. For the others who may express interest I can translate a fewhttp://home.planet.nl/~d.langers/3gB.htmlI'm not sure what the English term for these puzzles.Hope you like this method Funnily enough, the English name for this type of puzzle, plain and simple, is a Logic Puzzle.We have a monthly book of them out here called Logic Problems, and I've only missed one copy in the last year because I was in hospital. I've been doing these logic puzzles since I was about six. They're great fun!Rebecca Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chesso 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 I don't think that riddle thing is difficult it's one of those "could I really be bothered to sit here and think this through?" kind of things.And for me, I really couldn't be bothered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yordan 10 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 "could I really be bothered to sit here and think this through?"That's right. That's exactly the way I am currently thinking, which allows me to be happy and proud of myself. Unfortunately, evrytime I reall sit and think this through, I fail the test. Then I am really less proud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chesso 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2006 So the ultimate answer is to not be bothered so you cannot be proud deprived, besides what would you gain from figuring it out anyway lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If out of fear for failure you attempt nothing, how will you achieve higher things . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
winniwitch 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2006 hipersonally i don't think that the test is a test of iq, the more a person practised this kind of logic and deductive discrimination the easier this particular problem is to solve. true this is a common criticism of iq tests, as is the fact iq test are culturally dependant, eg. when a person is asked "every rose has a ...." who has the better chance of answering it the american or the sub-saharan african?although the riddle is a good example of deductive reasoning showing a level of concentration and motivation, it would interest me to know how many answered the question correctly while making notes and the number who answered the question correctly without, i think then the riddle becomes a indicator of memory and and mental agility.i wager anyone who is able to remember the first word of this post without looking could solve the riddle without pen and paper hehe.bye 4 nowwinnie_the_witch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 'quiz' would intention of logical reasoning would be dwarfed like this, and it would fall somewhere inbetween "memory" and "reasoning". Think it's better to test each with a seperate and more concise test Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 13, 2007 I don't think it is as easy as everyone says it is. Anyone with an iq higher than grapefruit can tell you the obvious answer once worked out. But when the green house is said to be on the left of the white, does that necessarily mean right next to it?-Corn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
