Find the (or a) point colored red _nearest_ to A >(Euclidean distance-wise). (This is always possible because both >colors have been used.) Suppose I chose point A to be the origin. Suppose also that the positive x-axis is colored red. Now what is the (or a) point colored red nearest to A? -- David Karr (karr@cs.cornell.edu)
