Suppose 24 red socks and 24 blue socks are lying in a drawer in a dark room. What is the minimum number of socks I must take out of the drawer which will guarantee that I have at least two socks of the same color? We came across this question, and it got us thinking of similar questions about socks. It turns out, there are many different questions that can be asked and some can be quite tricky.
