  • i won't mind at all buddy.
    but i think there are enough technical threads.
    so i just thought for a change.
    after all this also requires brain.
    & let's take it this way.
    for every puzzle we'll discuss here, we will try to produce it's code.
    fine now

  • nope buddy.
    count once again or else write a program which can count.
    yea do the latter thing.
    you want to be technical.

  • that's where the answer lies.
    if 2 boxes are of same color & adjacent  then they can't be counted

  • Hey Sunil,

    If you don't mind, this is a total technical zone. Please don't post any non technical questions here.

  • @ Sunil - i agree with Sanket. This is a technical zone(I dont refer to the whole of Samvaad , but i say that the thread comes under "Technical Queries "). So please avoid posting anything non-technical here... You can always post the non-technical threads under "General Discussions"...
