Project: THE PUZZLEBOX 2

Errata

Typos and bug fixes:

  • no updates as of yet

Objective

In a vein similar to the first puzzle box: use your skills to unravel the puzzle presented.

Commentary

The first puzzlebox was in many ways a test of your observational skills. To many, the frustrations emerged from what was being taken for granted. But once you took proper notice, and could apply the appropriate skills, its secrets could be obtained.

This second puzzlebox, puzzlebox2, will test both your observation skills (in a slightly different way) and reasoning skills in an abstract manner. If you are observant, the information you need is presented early on, but is a few layers of abstraction out of reach. Patience and perseverance will be key to victory.

Obtain the file

This week's project is located in the projects/puzzlebox2/ directory of the UNIX Public Directory, in a file called (unoriginally): puzzlebox2.zip

Make a copy into your home directory somewhere and set to work.

NOTE: Hopefully it has been standard practice to locate project files in their own unique subdirectory, such as under src/unix/, where you can then add/commit/push the results to your repository.

Process

As with the first puzzle box, you are on your own. Use your skills, your observations, and your experiences gained to unravel this new puzzle.

Submission

Instructions for submitting will be encountered during the successful unraveling of the puzzle box.
