Puzzle # 283 - "College Mathematics club"
17-Oct-13
Johann wants to join the mathematics club of his college. For that he has to answer some questions asked by the senior members of the club. He is being interviewed by James and Christine. They give him a task to check his logical skills. They give him 16 playing cards. The cards are four Aces, four Kings, four Jacks and four Queens.  Johann is told to make a 4 x 4 grid of these cards such that no two same cards should be in the same line horizontally, vertically or diagonally (by same the interviewers only refer to the value of the card and not which suit it belongs to). Johann answers in a flash that it was impossible. Now he is given some Joker cards and is told to achieve the above by replacing some of the cards with a Joker such that the Joker can come in line with any other card without a conflict. How many minimum number of Jokers will he have to use and what will be the configuration? While Johann is solving the puzzle, Christine gives him a paper on which it is written “It was and I said not are and and and are are different !”. She tells him to put the correct punctuation marks in this statement so that its meaning could be understood. This puts him in a spot of bother. Help Johann to get admitted into the college mathematics club by finding the correct configuration of cards and putting the correct punctuation marks in the sentence.
