Oh, it depends on your writing style then. Mine would be a different grouping:


1) CILMNOSUVWZ

2) ABDGJPQRTXY

3) EFHK

Does anyone write a capital A using more than 2 strokes??

And how come the O is on the same line as B and D?

Actually, I'd put K on line 2 as well.

Nice try but not quite the ending I was looking for!


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Veggie - 01-05-2023

Looks like its time to end this puzzle!

The classification is by the number of "ends" each letter has.
For example, BDO don't have any "ends"
P has one.
HKX have 4.

Thanks for the answer Veggie, I'd have never got that.

Would you like another puzzle?

A Zoo compound has a certain number of animals in it. The Keeper reports that there are 25 heads and 80 feet in the compound. How many birds and beasts are there?

At last another easy one.


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Vinny - 04-05-2023

Yep,methinks I have the  answer to this one! Idea

Btw, I thought the previous one was a good one, just a shame I couldn't get the answer! Blush


RE: Puzzle a Day! - Jimny14 - 04-05-2023

I'm going for no birds, 10 spiders and 15 snakes. But I'm also thinking that's not the answer you're looking for.

You forgot the octopus, Jimny. Big Grin
