IMG_20241213_092512.jpgThis is a bit hard, you need to backtrack to follow the sequence a to b to c to d ... to i.

IMG_20241214_074548.jpgThe person doing the puzzles had difficulty so this one is particularly easy. Sadly, they failed.

IMG_20241215_062515.jpgThey failed this as well.

1000117304.jpgThis is a bit tricky, can you solve the 36 paths?

IMG_20241215_152543.jpgThe big problem, any questions, just ask.

I wrote this for benchmarking ChatGPT and Gemini AI. Neither can solve it. I asked ChatGPT to solve it using linear algebra, it provided an answer.

There's no prizes for solving or even attempting this problem. Just bragging rights. It's definitely a difficult problem. Especially since movements are relative to current direction.

@OP
ab,ad,ac, ba,bc,bd, ca,cb,cd, db,da,dc.
@661,461 (A)
Starting from a, (→→←↙)×2 then →→.
@661,463 (A)
→↓|↓→, where | represents the OR operator.
@661,464 (A)
→→↓(→↓↓|↓↓→)|↓↓→↓→→, there are 3 solutions that all use 6 moves, but more solutions exist that use more steps.

Is aba valid? Or does the sequence have to use unique letters only? You might as well code a program to find all solutions, this is basic combinatorics for the most part.

In fairness, if you want to write your own puzzle in a similar style, I'll try to solve it. No word puzzles or "can you carry your luggage across the river in a boat in 3 movements or less" puzzles please. I'm crap at those.

I'm pleased to see you giving it a go. I'll check your answers and edit this post.

Exercise 1 💯
Exercise 3 💯
Exercise 4 💯
Exercise 5 💯

Is aba valid? Yes, because I didn't say it wasn't invalid.

I'm truly impressed by your enthusiasm. If you want to do the main problem, there's no hurry.

You could've probably used o1-preview instead, but I myself don't have access to it anymore. I wish there were open-source chain-of-thought reasoning models.
