Solution to the Einstein Quiz: the Fifth Pet
Almost all the answers to the Einstein Quiz I have seen on the web go through the same mechanical process to solving the puzzle. They chart out the problem, lay out each clue graphically, and slowly build a picture of which persons, drinks and pets are in which houses. Its a logical, technical and involved process. If you do all this you inevitably conclude that it is the German who has fish.
But is this the right way to solve the problem? No its not! Nowhere in the problem, except in the question, is the word fish found. Thus the fifth pet might just as well be elephants as fish. After a lot of work you can safely conclude that the German has the fifth pet, but you have to ASSUME that the fifth pet is fish in order to conclude the German has fish. But you have no basis for making this assumption. Note that Einstein was very careful to separate the "Facts" from the "Question" in this puzzle.
So the correct answer to the Einstein Quiz is: You have no idea if anyone keeps fish or not. Once you grasp the nature of the problem correctly, its rather simple to solve. And it is just like Einstein to give us a puzzle like this, for he stressed examining assumptions, and once wrote: "The important thing is to not stop questioning."
I found another good answer to Einstein's Riddle but I wanted to have your opinions on its validity.
Basically my answer is correct but different because I interpreted the expression "to the left" in "The green house is to the left of the white house" differently than anyone else.
To me (I'm french and maybe that's why), to the left means anywhere on the left and not only next to the left:
So after 90 minutes of hard struggle without any logical thinking I came to this conclusion that fulfills the hypotheses:
GREEN BLUE WHITE RED YELLOW
NORW GERM SWEDE BRIT DANE
Coffee Water Milk Beer Tea
Pall Mall Prince Blends Bluemas Dunhill
Birds Cats Dogs Horse
Therefore for me the Dane owns the fish in his lovely Yellow house
Comparing the two solutions I suspect that the important thing that confuses people is that they don't think the cats' owner drinks water!!
