SQUARE Puzzle
(Published on 7. February 2010, 03:31 by zhergan)
Some of the cells of the given n x n square grids are painted with one of red, blue or grey colour and some others remain unpainted (white). Discover the logic for painting job and paint necessary cells in the 9 x 9 empty grid.
**** Hint: Notice that there exists no grey cells for 5 x 5 grid. Grey cells can not appear for any n x n grid where n < 6. This information may help you for solving. ****
Solution code: First give the total number of grey cells, then give the coordinates of blue and red painted cells (use B for blue and R for red) from top to bottom left to right. While determining the coordinate of a coloured cell first use row number and then the column number. For 6 x 6 grid the answer would be as follows: 10R22B23R36R41B42R46R51
