Very good answer, Pros.  You get the Gold Star.  Cool

This one looks more complicated!

In the sequence 3 1 2 1 3 2, each of the numbers 1,2,3 occurs twice and there are 3 numbers between the two 3s, two numbers between the two 2s and one number between the two 1s. Can you find a similar sequence using the four numbers 1,2,3,4, twice each?

Yes, I think so.

Spoiler (highlight to reveal): 4 1 3 1 2 4 3 2

Weirdly, it's the first combination I tried. I thought maybe there were lots of combinations that would work, but I haven't found another one yet.

That's one answer, Pros, and there's another one.Big Grin


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Proserpina - 07-11-2021

I suppose the same one in reverse would work too!


RE: Puzzle a Day! - MartinH - 07-11-2021

Like Pros, that was the first combo I tried. Good spot on the reversing, didn't think of that!

That one gave me brain ache from the start, plus I missed when it was first posted and couldn't resist looking at Pros' spoiler Smile
