Question
You are on the west bank of a river with a bag of corn, a goose, and a fox. There is a boat on this shore. You want to move all three of
these to the other side of the river, but you can only bring one of these things at a time in the boat. If the goose is left alone with the
corn, the corn will be eaten. If the fox is left alone with the goose, the goose will be eaten. Prepare a scenario for safely bringing these
three items across the river by placing the following steps in the correct order. Note: to disambiguate the answer, bring the fox across the
river before bringing the corn.
