How about "Drunken Santa Claus" problem? Regards Uffe PS: All answers to the competition has been different so far, but I'm not going to tell if anyone has found the correct solution. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Thoen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Uffe Kousgaard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Mapinfo-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 10:36 PM Subject: Re: MI-L Christmas competition On Wed, 1 Dec 2004, Uffe Kousgaard wrote: > December has started, so let that be a good excuse for notifying you all > about our Christmas competetion at: > http://www.routeware.dk/christmas2004.php Ah, the old "Drunken Salesman" problem! But where in the world is Tr�g�rden, Denmark anyway? Since there's no other place near Denmark, I'm going to guess that (10E, 56N) is close enough for this problem. Santa can just dump the presents out of the sleigh from 10,000 meters and the scatter should distribute them well enough, don't you think? - Bill Thoen --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 14327 ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
