Puzzle
- US Version
The prospective tenants of this row of houses have some unusual requirements.
1. "I want to live next to a red house!"
2. "No blue neighbors, please. Oh, and a house on the end is out of the question!"
3. "Two doors down from a yellow house, and no neighbors the same color as us!"
4. "I'm fine with any color as long as it's not blue or red!"
Can you repaint just one house so that every tenant can have their dream home? Touch a house to change its color.

Hints
Solution
Incorrect
Too bad.
Take another look at the tenants' conditions, and see whose house color and position you can work out for certain.
Correct
Correct!
Repainting the rightmost house in yellow satisfies all the tenants' conditions.
- US Version
Never mind the cost of materials and labor--the landlord ought to charge all four of them for the time it took to work out which house to paint!
