More Trees (Posted on 2003-10-30) Difficulty: 2 of 5
After figuring how to plant your 10 trees in 5 rows, the tree keeper walks up to you.

I like your idea, but sometimes I get vicious squirrels that come and steal all the fruit off it...

I am installing some garden path such that it is harmless to humans but will shock squirrels. (This means the squirrels won't pass over it.) Can you place those 10 trees along 5 lines of straight garden path so that there are 4 trees on each garden path and there are some trees on the inside?

How would you arrange the trees this time?

Notes about squirrels | Comment 25 of 27 |
a) Why would a squirrel need to worry about a path? They can jump quite far you know...

b) If anyone out there remembers the "bird brain of Britain" thing that happened on TV years ago, then you'll know that squirrels are highly intelligent when it comes to solving problems, especially if there's a dinner in it for them... Any method of prevention will likely take constant maintenance...

Peace,
Rawlyn.
