    What the fuck? I thought it was quite simple. I encountered a case the same as this one but it only involved 4 variables.

    Yup... I also got it done. So does this mean I'll be able to find a job as a ferry operator in Japan? :)

    Hahahah. Got it after a few rounds. Fun. Actually, not that hard if you have the rules in mind. I got a few variations.

    did it in 5ish mins, first couple of mins i thought id never get it. I have had similar questions to this in interviews it just tests your abilty to figure out problems i guess. If i ever become of the boss of something i am defintally doing tests like this, just to be bastard if nothing else
