Genius?

Solve this in 10 mins

A question for the genius, the one who solve the problem will write the name in the attached file.

IF; 2+3=10
7+2=63
6+5=66
8+4=96
THEN;

9+7=???????????


Forward mail里的东西,本来只是随便看过,也尝试联想是不是所谓的2,3,7其实是代表别的数字。
扫过大概5秒,没概念,然后就重新把整封mail读过,看到第一行字;
herm,十分钟,看我需用多久。

再看过题目,看了前两个,我的天,别说是那么直接吧;
继续看另外两个,我的天,真的就是那么直接。
还敢说genius的,这世界就是那么多无聊的人。


让我想起上个月朋友send我的另一个,

This is a mathematical challenge, and it's been said that: If you're an engineer, you should be able to solve it in (under) three minutes (more like 30 seconds), if you're an architect, in three hours; if you're a doctor, in six hours; if you're an accountant, in three months and if you're a lawyer, probably never. If you're good at math or logical problems, solve this challenge and the answer is the password to open the spreadsheet to which you can add your name to the hall of fame.
What is the missing number in this logical series?
1, 2, 6, 42, 1806, ____???



Well well,也是一个简单的,而里面的职业区分,在我看来更是一群屁话。
工程师就是运用逻辑最多人了?
在我看来,律师的逻辑思考才是最清晰的,不然怎能捉别人的语病来反驳回人。


记得两三年前也有看过类似的算术题,大概是,
一辆巴士上坐了一些人,每个人带着几只猫,那些猫又个别有几只小猫,算出巴士上“脚”的总数。

很简单的数学题,只不过需要加法与乘法而已;也是被夸到有多难。
当时我这奇怪的脑袋就在想,不会那么简单,这应该是一个脑筋急转弯的题目,一定还需要加上巴士司机,所以算到的总数一定还需要加二。

结果,有时候,事实就是那么简单。



有人要把一根草说成像一棵树那样高大(并不是在说“小草”,不懂?请参看Bedtime Story),我们也办法。
