    Another (more difficult, imo) logic problem...

    "There are three guardians, A, B and C. Their names are Knight, Knave and Chaos. Knight always speaks truly, Knave always lies. Chaos tossed a coin this morning to decide whether today he would behave like Knight or like Knave.
    Your task is simple: ask three yes-no questions, each of a single guardian, and determine which is Knight, which is Knave, and which is Chaos. There is, alas, a complication: the guardians understand English but will answer in the local language, in which “Da” means yes and “Ja” means no. Or possibly “Ja” means yes and “Da” means no – you cannot remember."

    I had to solve that for one of my programming classes in college. Ill let someone else try and answer it. Its quite fun to go through the logic process, but the deduction of questions you can ask leads to a very simple explanation.

    I've concluded that the solution provided by the guy who created the above problem is bullsh!t inasmuch as the guy breaks his own rules in order to come to the solution. Sorry fellas...maybe adam will be kind enough to post his solution after giving others time to answer.:)
