Outside a room there are three light switches. Each switch
is connected to a different light bulb inside the room.
Each of the three switches can be either 'ON' or 'OFF'.
You are allowed to set each switch the way you want it,
once, and then enter the room.
Your task is to then determine which switch controls which
bulb. How can you do it?

Answer / anish rajan kurian
you cant switch off a switch which u hv already switched on..
the question says
You are allowed to set each switch the way you want it,
once,
It can be either switched on or off..since once is mentioned..
hence,
switch on one switch..wait for 5mins..switch on the next one and enter..
the one which is glowing and hot is the first switch..
the one which is glowing and not hot is the second switch..
the one which is not glowing is the third switch..
