Type deduction (Posted on 2011-12-24) |
|
Each of the three girls Francine, Gertrude and Harriet are either knights who always tell the truth or liars who always tell a lie.
Francine says, "Either I belong or Gertrude belongs to a different type from the other two."
Whose type can you deduce with absolute certainty?
