Weddings (Posted on 2007-04-03) Difficulty: 3 of 5
You are at a wedding reception in Knave City and are talking with someone (a knight, knave or liar) who makes the following statements:

  • Chris is married to Alice.
  • Either Alex is married to Coral or Bob is married to Alice but not both.
  • Either Alex isn't married to Betty or Chris isn't married to Coral but not both.
  • I am a knight.


  • The maid of honor (who is a knight) tells you whether the third statement is true or false. From that, you could figure out who is married to whom...
