A man is headed to a mountain along with a lion, a goat, and
a basket of vegetables. On the way, he needs to cross a river
and the boat can only carry two things at a time. If he takes
the vegetables, the lion will eat the goat. If he takes the lion,
the goat will eat the vegetables. How does he cross the river?
In our June issue we omitted to provide a quiz. We apologise to
