That was a good one. (I hope I'm right!)

You're right! Well done, Cameron.

My CIS teacher showed us that one in class - it's a good one. If you're wondering if that is normal for a computer teacher to show that, the answer is no. For fun at the beginning of class he would always have a brain teaser.

I didnt have to open the comment box to know that Cameron would be the first to answer that question. He loves that kind of stuff.

The funny part is it drove me nuts for about 10 minutes before I could figure it out. Now it seems so simple.

That is a lot like life...but for another post, not a commment.

Of course me, who failed math 092 at MCC 3 times back in the day, I don't understand this one at all. Can someone explain please?

Aubrey said...

Each row describes the row above it.
