Can you draw four straight lines which go through all of these dots? Your lines must be continuous (ie your pen must never leave the paper) and you must go through each dot only once but your lines may cross.

Re: dotty challenge

If the nine dots were on a piece of paper, you could roll the paper into a cylinder & then join 'em all up with one line.

Actually you started one dot too high, you wentthrough the top left one twice. by starting one dot down you don't

Why didn't you use the line tool in Paint Neil? :)
