Correct for jer.
Now you're outside of a room with no windows or anything,having only a door that can connect it with your room. There are three switches next to the door,one of which lights the lamp inside the other room. How can you be 100% sure about which switch of the three (switches) lights the lamp? (you may open the door only once,to get in the other room. There is no way to look inside the other room without opening the door. If you have heard this before,don't answer plz)

Prop the door open and turn the lights on one by one. You should see the light from one of the lamps through the door.

switch 2 of the switches on and open the door, and if the light is off then it is the last switch, if the light is on throw a rock at it then none of the switches turn it on ._.

You only open the door to enter the room... No pressing the switches after opening. And you gotta be 100% sure. Not 33.3% nor 50% ._.
