You have three bears and three
humans. The bears and humans have to take a boat from one island to
another island. One bear is a special bear who can drive the boat. The
boat can hold no more than two - 2 bears, or 2 humans, or 1 bear plus
1 human. There can never be more bears than humans on either island or
the human will be killed. How can this be done?
