Subj:.....The
Canals On Mars (S611)
From the book
"Mathematical Puzzles of Sam Loyd"
Edited by Martin Gardner
From: Dover Publications in 1959
Here is a map of the
newly discovered cities and water-
ways on our nearest
neighbor, Mars. Start at the city
marked T, at the
south pole, and see if you can spell a
complete English
sentence by making a tour of all the
cities, visiting
each city only once, and returning to
the starting point.
When this puzzle
originally appeared in a magazine, more
fifty thousand readers
reported, "There is no possible
way." Yet it
is a very simple puzzle. |
