Task Examples

1. Beavers like complex rule systems and have therefore established a new dress code. Some beavers don’t use the correct combination of clothes. They use the graph below to determine which beaver is dressed correctly. The graph is called a tree because there is a single root node (the topmost) with branches connecting other nodes – like a real tree. At every node you have to decide which direction you want to go within the tree, and you can’t go up again.

Which beaver is not dressed according to the dress code?

A)

B)

C)

D)
