Underlying logic
I have put the numbers from 1 to 10 in three groups. Tell me, on what basis have I grouped the numbers. I shall give you a clue, but I am not sure if that would be of any help 
CLUE
(1,2,6,10) RED
(4,5,9) BLUE
(3,7,8) GREEN
Character is who you are when no one is looking.

Re: Underlying logic
Good one ganesh! I was confused for a while.
(1,2,6,10) DOT
(4,5,9) LINE
(3,7,8) SPACE
Don't rely too heavily on that clue, or you'll get very confused.
It's mainly to show ganesh that I know.
Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Re: Underlying logic
Don't you mean:
(1,2,6,10) ADD
(4,5,9) PLUS
(3,7,8) TOTAL

Re: Underlying logic
(1,2,6,10) YES,
(4,5,9) YOUR
(3,7,8) RIGHT!
Hehe, I think it's a bit obvious now.

Re: Underlying logic
{1,2,6,10} -> Wordlength = Wordlength("RED")
{4,5,9} -> Wordlength = Wordlength("BLUE")
{3,7,8 } -> Wordlength = Wordlength("GREEN")
nice problem!
