minus-squareooterness@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up31·6 months agoOkay, but what if I have a lamb, a cabbage, and a wolf? Obviously I can only bring one at a time over the wall, but the lamb will eat the cabbage if I’m not there…
minus-squareMinFapper@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·6 months agoIs that from a riddle? Based on what you’ve given so far, you can just take the lamb first, since the wolf won’t eat the cabbage.
minus-squaremlg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·6 months agoThe original riddle is a boat or gondola across the river that can only fit yourself and one thing. It’s not that hard of a riddle, it’s just that you have to apply the same logic to the other side too.
minus-squareMindTraveller@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·edit-26 months agoRight, but what do you take next? And what do you do when you’re going back to get the third thing, leaving whatever’s on the other side unsupervised?

minus-squareCaptnNMorgan@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 months agoNo it doesn’t. The problem is what happens on the other side of the fence before you get there. I have the wolf, the sheep and the cabbage under my complete control while they are on my side of the fence

Cabbage, wolf, sheep
Wolf eats sheep while you’re yeeting the cabbage.
No it doesn’t. The problem is what happens on the other side of the fence before you get there.
