I did it good find.
There are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

All generalizations are wrong. Even this one.

it's quite easy actually.
Realise that the thief can stay on either side of the river as long as she's all alone.
Similarly the girls (or boys, or any combination thereof) can also stay on a side of the river without parents present.

After a few false starts it wasn't so hard.
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

Computers are man's attempt at designing a cat: It does whatever it wants, whenever it wants, and rarely ever at the right time.

Took three tries but I got it. Not very hard.
