There are two kinds of people on an island you're visiting. There are "Honestbrants" who speak always the truth, and thre are "Swindlebrants" who always lie.
Three guys (A, B and C) are arguing at a market. You ask person A: "Are you an Honestbrant or a Swindlebrant?" The answer is just a mumble that you couldn't hear so you ask person B: "What did person A say?" Person B answers: "He said that he is a Swindlebrant." Person C objects, cutting in and saying: "Don't listen to person B, he is a liar!"
What group does person B belong to, Honestbrant or a Swindlebrant?
b has to be a liar because if a said he was a swindle cant then he was lying and really he is a honestcant but that contradicts itselff as if he was an honestcant he'd have to say he was hinest not a liar. so b must be lying??
Three goddesses were sitting in an old Indian temple. Their names were Truth (always true), Lie (always lying) and Wisdom (sometimes lying). There was the following conversation: Asking the left one: "Who is sitting next to you?" "Truth," she answered. Asking the middle one: "Who are you?" "Wisdom." And at last question for the right one: "Who is your neighbor?" "Lie," she replied.
