I'm bored and trying not to actually start doing my many assignments, so here is brain teaser:

A man and two boys, a woman and two girls, and a policeman and a prisoner all want to cross a river using a small boat. Here are the rules:

- The boat can only fit two people at a time and must have at least one adult to get it across the river.

- The man cannot be alone, on the boat or on one of the banks, with one of the two little girls unless the woman is there as well. Same with the woman and the two little boys.

- The policeman and prisoner must not be separated at any time.

There is no trick or silly answer, you just have to solve the riddle by finding the proper combinations.

HINT: The girls and boys CAN be alone on one of the banks without the woman and man.

Not that anyone showed any interest, but here is the solution if anyone is wondering:

1) The man and woman get into the boat and get to the second bank. Where the woman gets off the boat.

2) The man returns with the boat to the first bank. He stays in the boat (so technically he's not on the same bank with the girls without the woman), he picks up one of the boys and goes to the second bank.

3) Both the man and the boy get off the boat and the woman and the man get back on the boat and return to the first bank where they both get off the boat.

4) The man then takes the remaining boy to the second bank where he drops him off then goes back to the first bank.

5) The woman and the man once again get on the boat and go together to second bank where the man gets off but the woman stays on the boat.

6) The woman then takes the boat back to the first bank and gets off. The policeman and the prisoner then board the boat and go to the second bank where they both get off.

7) The man then takes the boat back to the first bank where he picks the woman up and both go to the second bank where he leaves the boat but the woman stay on.

8) She then takes the boat back to the first bank where she picks up one of the two girls and cross the river to the second bank. Both get off the boat.

9) The man and the woman then get on the boat and go back to the first bank and both get off the boat before the woman and the remaining girl get back on the boat and go to the second bank.

10) The girl gets off the boat while the woman goes back to the first bank where she picks up the man. They both go to the second bank and finally, both get off the boat.

Simple, right? :D

Software companies - Microsoft etc - use these riddles while interviewing candidates for job/internship although they are not nearly complicated as this. It's a real test of how fast you can rule out permutations.
