/* ZEBRA, Who Owns the Zebra? */
/* Written in GNU MathProg by Andrew Makhorin <mao@gnu.org> */
########################################################################
# The Zebra Puzzle is a well-known logic puzzle.
#
# It is often called "Einstein's Puzzle" or "Einstein's Riddle"
# because it is said to have been invented by Albert Einstein as a boy,
# with the common claim that Einstein said "only 2 percent of the
# world's population can solve". It is also sometimes attributed to
# Lewis Carroll. However, there is no known evidence for Einstein's or
# Carroll's authorship.
#
# There are several versions of this puzzle. The version below is
# quoted from the first known publication in Life International
# magazine on December 17, 1962.
#
# 1. There are five houses.
# 2. The Englishman lives in the red house.
# 3. The Spaniard owns the dog.
# 4. Coffee is drunk in the green house.
# 5. The Ukrainian drinks tea.
# 6. The green house is immediately to the right of the ivory house.
# 7. The Old Gold smoker owns snails.
# 8. Kools are smoked in the yellow house.
# 9. Milk is drunk in the middle house.
# 10. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
# 11. The man who smokes Chesterfields lives in the house next to the
# man with the fox.
# 12. Kools are smoked in the house next to the house where the horse
# is kept.
# 13. The Lucky Strike smoker drinks orange juice.
# 14. The Japanese smokes Parliaments.
# 15. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
#
# Now, who drinks water? Who owns the zebra?
#
# In the interest of clarity, it must be added that each of the five
# houses is painted a different color, and their inhabitants are of
# different national extractions, own different pets, drink different
# beverages and smoke different brands of American cigarettes. One
# other thing: In statement 6, right means your right.
