And another fairly easy one for warming up with:
There's a room 10' x 38' and 20' tall. An ant is in the middle of the "short" wall, 1' off the floor - and a crumb is taped to the opposite wall 1' down from the ceiling in the middle. What is the minimal distance the ant will have to travel to get to the crumb?
I'll get the 'knot' problems up later on tonight, as i'll have to look at some diagrams and draw those, it seems.
