1a. Fold in half and fire it up.
1b. Fold in half, fold one half in half, open the folded half and fire it up.
2. Move two from the bottom row up to the second row. Move the top one to the bottom.
This is not difficult. Or do I not understand?

Question 1:
Fold the rope in half for 30 minutes, fold once more and take 3 lengths of the rope to equal 45 minutes.
Question 2:
No clue for the next question. Can you reword it in away that doesn't show me that English isn't your first language?

Hello Brother,
Quote: Can you reword it in away that doesn't show me that English isn't your first language?
Firstly, dont try to be sarcastic, insults are not welcome here(You have just joined code project,learn to speak). If you read the post of other senior members you will notice how humble they are and what is the depth and power of their knowledge.
If you dint understand the question i apologize for that, i couldnt put it properly.And yes English is not my first language, i stay in India. My mother tongue is Hindi and i am proud of that.
With due respect, keeping aside all issues![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif) , its my mistake that i couldnt put that question properly.
I will rephrase it for you:
Just consider the figure in the second question as a triangle of balls/smilies. You need to invert the triangle. To do that you either have 3 moves or a combination of (2 + 1 ) moves.
The word "Move" means to pick up and place the ball in order to re-arrange the entire figure.
You either pick up 3 balls together, or first you pick up 2 balls and then one ball or vice versa.
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

I didn't try to be sarcastic, I succeeded.
Sorry we can't joke around on the internet. We might hurt peoples feelings.

OOPS,
I am so so so sorry brother. Actually i was very frustrated brother i couldn't think rationally. It happens sometimes when you dont crack an interview  . I am so sorry brother i miss behaved with many people yesterday, even on code project.
For the last time please forgive me i was so rude...
By the way if you dont mind me asking: what do you do? i mean are you a student or a professional?
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

Don't be sorry, I was just joking again.
I take for granted how hard it is to convey sarcasm through text, let alone to a non-native English speaker.
I am a Software Engineer.
Also, I don't really see why you would be proud of your first language. I'm not proud I speak English, I'm just happy most other countries usually speak it(and that it became the common language of the internet) You didn't choose to speak it, so no reason to make it define you.

Yes completely I agree. I lost it yesterday  .
Software engineer, thats good. So you are also lost in the world of computers  . Hmmm Welcome to code project brother. Happy coding.

Sorry, have no idea how to respond. Fire is a non-linear process, a rope half the length may burn in 56 minutes or it may never burn because there isn't enough fuel to keep the fire burning until the rope is consumed.
If you hold your laptop upside down, you've rearranged the smilies as requested without moving any of them. (Not really, left/right orientation is swapped too.) The best I could do was 1 move of 1 and

So with the move last week I got all my old Lego('s) from the attic. The box says it's suitable for kids from 9 to 12. I guess they only put the suitable girl age on there, because we all know men love Lego to the end 
That said, I must suppress the urge to get it out the box and start playing with it again. Must... Suppress... Urge...

Whatever you do, don't go up there and find your old train set.
That can start some very unhealthy addictions...

That is what my Dad did as soon as he set it up for me.
I can still remember it. I was so anxious and wanted to play with it but I had to wait until he was finished.
I only wish I had a boy so I could get him his first train set -- and play with it myself.

He was just testing it.
Thoroughly.
Just as you will - you need to make sure it's safe for your kid, don't you? Should be finished in...oh...a couple of hours...

I never had a train. Nor did I ever have Lego. But I just finished repairing my RC heli. Last week I landed on a rock hidden in the gras, which cost me the tail rotor. Now it has fresh blades for both the tail and the main rotor. The blades still need some balancing, but flies again.

What about a train set built with Legos?

Nope, I had space ships, a sub and a big truck. Good times

Train sets are cool, I don't care what anyone says.

It's the space that is the crippler! You start with a dozen pieces of track on the floor, and before you know it, you are snorting new engines every week, and moving home to get get a bigger attic...

I know a man who displays a train set every year for the holidays; he's kind of a local landmark. He spends most of the year building it.
