So what I am talking about is called a "satisfactory" puzzle, which is
a subset of a "proper" puzzle.
That is impossible to define, though, because some people are mental
acrobats and can do a lot of deep analysis in their heads. What's
satisfactory to you may not be satisfactory to me.
Besides, looking for "satisfactory" patterns can involve a truckload of
trial and error.
I know, let's use "regular expressions" <g>
Thanks, I've been having a miserable day but that got me chuckling :)
