Ok...the answer could probably readily be found via Google, but no cheating...
The MU Puzzle...
Here's how it works: It consists of transforming a string "MI" to a string "MU" following a set of rules. The only 3 letters used are M, U, and I. The rules are basic, but restrictive. They are also forward only, and all rules are optional, in that you can apply a rule if you choose to, as long as the rule applies. Here are the rules: 1. If you have a string where the last letter is I, then you may add a U on at the end. 2. If you have Mx, then you may change it to Mxx (i.e. MIU to MIUIU). 3. If a string contains III, you may replace it with U (pretty self-explanatory). 4. If UU occurs in a string, you may drop it (again, self-explanatory). Now...can you produce "MU"?
