Doubleton (Posted on 2007-09-20) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Alex, Bert and Carl are all different types. One is a knave, one is either a knight or liar, and one is a doubleton. A doubleton is a type similar to a knave, except that a doubleton's truth pattern is two true statements followed by two false statements repeatedly.

From the statements below, determine who is the doubleton.

Alex:
1. I am a knight.
2. Bert is the doubleton.
3. Carl is the knave.

Bert:
1. I am the knave.
2. Carl is the doubleton.
3. Alex is a liar.

Carl:
1. I am a liar.
2. Alex is the doubleton.
3. Bert is a knight.
