@aditya: the problem you mentioned is not like this one if i'm a green eyed there is no reason to kill myself on the second day if no one kills himself on the 1st day actually in your solution there is no difference between blue eyed people and green eyed people so a blue eyed might kill himself as well
the solution is 20 but they all kill themselves in the 20th day: every green eyed person can count 19 green eyed every blue eyed person can count 20 green eyed in the village so at the 20th day each green eyed knows that the reason no green eyed has yet committed suicide in the first 19 days was that they could all count 19 other green eyed people so he must be a green eyed and kills himself -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Algorithm Geeks" group.
