Hello! Here's a mind-boggling puzzle about an archaeologist and torches.
Q: An archaeologist discovered a temple with 100 torches. He's given an odd lighter that only works if he lights 3 torches simultaneously. The torches go out if left alone. To keep them lit, he must light one unlit torch with every previously lit torch. How does he proceed and leave?
