Question types: Views of a building

Rule: Cube buildings

From the front you see only the tallest tower in each column.

From above you see every place where at least one cube stands; the height does not matter there.

Example: On the left towers of 1 (front) and 3 (back), on the right 2 and 1: from the front you see columns 3 and 2 high.

Watch out: The front view does not add heights: a taller tower at the back simply rises above the lower one in front.
