6 | # The Zebra Puzzle is a well-known logic puzzle. |
---|
7 | # |
---|
8 | # It is often called "Einstein's Puzzle" or "Einstein's Riddle" |
---|
9 | # because it is said to have been invented by Albert Einstein as a boy, |
---|
10 | # with the common claim that Einstein said "only 2 percent of the |
---|
11 | # world's population can solve". It is also sometimes attributed to |
---|
12 | # Lewis Carroll. However, there is no known evidence for Einstein's or |
---|
13 | # Carroll's authorship. |
---|
14 | # |
---|
15 | # There are several versions of this puzzle. The version below is |
---|
16 | # quoted from the first known publication in Life International |
---|
17 | # magazine on December 17, 1962. |
---|
18 | # |
---|
19 | # 1. There are five houses. |
---|
20 | # 2. The Englishman lives in the red house. |
---|
21 | # 3. The Spaniard owns the dog. |
---|
22 | # 4. Coffee is drunk in the green house. |
---|
23 | # 5. The Ukrainian drinks tea. |
---|
24 | # 6. The green house is immediately to the right of the ivory house. |
---|
25 | # 7. The Old Gold smoker owns snails. |
---|
26 | # 8. Kools are smoked in the yellow house. |
---|
27 | # 9. Milk is drunk in the middle house. |
---|
28 | # 10. The Norwegian lives in the first house. |
---|
29 | # 11. The man who smokes Chesterfields lives in the house next to the |
---|
30 | # man with the fox. |
---|
31 | # 12. Kools are smoked in the house next to the house where the horse |
---|
32 | # is kept. |
---|
33 | # 13. The Lucky Strike smoker drinks orange juice. |
---|
34 | # 14. The Japanese smokes Parliaments. |
---|
35 | # 15. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house. |
---|
36 | # |
---|
37 | # Now, who drinks water? Who owns the zebra? |
---|
38 | # |
---|
39 | # In the interest of clarity, it must be added that each of the five |
---|
40 | # houses is painted a different color, and their inhabitants are of |
---|
41 | # different national extractions, own different pets, drink different |
---|
42 | # beverages and smoke different brands of American cigarettes. One |
---|
43 | # other thing: In statement 6, right means your right. |
