All algorithms where failing miserably for 45 min. Then an epiphany came and got it (with and without math).

I have to say that this can get you stuck no matter how good in math/puzzles you are.

thanks for the fun.

Very funny game...well, I saw the possibility of the rose after 5 minutes, but stupid me, I didn't put it into practice, I decided to try mathematics first, then I stopped for a quick dinner and when I came back, tried what my intuition told me before, and as usuall, it was right.

So, all in all, it took me about one hour to figure it out, and that's bad. I'm trained to think out of the box, and know very well that emptiness is far better than an analytical mind.

My wife, oh yes...she found the solution in less than 5 minutes. big grin

My daughter came home with this last night as a class challenge from one of her new teachers this year. It took me a few minutes today with real computer dice, but I can now go home and encourage her to find out the answer on her own. cool

A little dumb luck, mixed with a poor strategy equals an Ah-Ha moment
alarm
