Tomorrow they will be lined up in a single room and each given a black or white hat – this time they don’t know how many of each. The person in the back can see everyone’s hat besides his own, and similarly everyone else can only see the hats of the people in front of them. The person in the back will shout out a guess for his hat color and will be saved if and only if he is right. Then the person in front of him will have to guess, and this will continue until everyone has the opportunity to be saved. Each person can only say his or her guess of “white” or “black” when their turn comes, and no other signals may be made.
