Whoever makes it, tells it not. Whoever takes it, knows it not. And whoever knows it wants it not.

You are the newly appointed maintenance manager of a prestigous but very old university. The wiring is a bit finicky and the old manager who died never explained all of the buildings secrets. In building A are three switches and across the road in building B are three lecture halls whose lighting is controlled by said switches. You work alone having no staff. How can you in one trip only determine which switch controls which rooms lights

How can you in one trip only determine which switch controls which rooms lights
Lets call the switches 1 - 2 - 3.
Leave switch 1 on for a couple hours. Turn it off.
Turn switch 2 on.
Go to the other building.
One hall will be lit up, that is switch two.
One hall will be dark, with hot lights, that will be switch one.
One hall will be dark with cold lights, that is switch 3.
VICTOLY!

Hey guys, maybe you can help me out with this one (because no one else I know can):
I have here for you: 2 envelopes, each with money inside. The only information you have is this: one of the two envelopes contains twice as much money as the other.
You have to pick one of them. Then. you can look inside, and if you want, you can change it with the other envelope.
Now here is the problem: let's say that the envelope you chose contains 10 dollar. Then the other must hold either 5 or 20 dollar. If you choose to keep your first pick, you will have the 10 dollar. If you choose the other one: you'll have 50 % chance of getting 20 dollar and 50 % chance you'll have 5 dollar. The mean of this is (5+20)/2=12,5 dollar So, if you choose to switch, (and you do it many times like this) you'll end up with more money, then if you stick with your first choice.
If this is true, then I would say, it is better to make a choice, not even open your envelope at all: you're going to switch anyway. So pick one, give it back and pick the other instead, and you'll have more money in the end.
Good luck!
