If you were in a room with two computers, two doors, and nothing else?!


Question:

If you were in a room with two computers, two doors, and nothing else?

You have to get out or eventually you will starve.

If you open one door # 1, it will detonate and blow you to pieces.
The other door # 2 is the door to freedom, but you don't know the difference, therefore your chance of picking the right door at random is 50/50.

The only chance you have is by asking one of the two computers.

The computers are identical (you don't know the difference) and there is only enough power for one question between the two, so you can only ask one question to one computer, then both computers will shut down.

Problem.

One computer will give you deceptive answers that will lead you to door # 1, and the other will be totally honest and lead you to door # 2.

What question can you ask either computer that will lead you to door # 2. (The question is exactly the same).

The answers will differ, but will both lead you to door # 2. Please explain the logic of the question and the reason both answers will lead you to door # 2.

I'm quite sure that some of you have heard this one before and know the answer.

For the sake of fun, please don't post the answer. Give others a chance to enjoy solving the riddle. Well, I am sure someone will post anyway as that's just the way it is on Y.A. sometimes.

Considering that, and the fact that someone may figure it out and post before you. If you really want to figure it out on your own, I suggest copying this and not checking the answers until you are sure you figured it out before you come back and post. Most people have to get a piece of paper and sketch out the scene.

This is a real thinker and a lot of fun you can try with your friends. I will extend the riddle before choosing, and this will not go to voting, so you have eight days. Have fun.
