3 switch and light puzzle asked in interviews


3 switch puzzle 


 There are three switches outside the room . 


 Two Of which are useless , while one is connected to a lightbulb inside the room.

 You can on or off any switch any number of time (it also cover you can on or off any number of switch together) .

 You have one, and only one, opportunity to go inside the room and look . 

 Question is : How can you tell which switch goes to light?

    switch on the second switch for five minute and then switch it off and then immediately switch on 3rd one and enter the room. Touch the bulb:
    1> if buld is on then 3rd switch.
    2> if the buld is off but is hot then second switch.
    3> if the bulb is off and is cold first switch
