If I needed to cross a road, and I first cross a quarter of it, followed by half of that quarter, followed by half of that half of a quarter and so on, Imagine I raise a green flag for every odd time I stop and an orange one for every even time I stop. When I get to the finish line, which flag am I holding up?

I honestly have no Idea, because when you add it up, it is going to take forever, and with no more clues, it will remain impossible :( unless I am wrong, please correct me

This is called "Zeno's Paradox", or a version of it. Google it and you will get some answers.
