EMPTY (X, Y) - Empty out the water in bottle labeled X into bottle labeled Y, where the amount of water in X is less than or equal to remaining capacity of Y. DRAIN (X ) - Drain out all the water contained in bottle labeled X.Initially, A is full with water, and B and C are empty. 1) After executing a sequence of three instructions, bottle A contains one litre of water.
