Study Notes on Binary Logics

By Gaurav Mohanty|Updated : December 15th, 2021

When you’re dealing with questions from Binary Logics, start with people who say ‘I am the liar’ for this has to be false lest it be a paradox, the next statement hence has to be true. In this way, you could eliminate a contender for ‘liar’ and also get an additional true statement as a bonus.

A, B and C are three people who tell the truth, who alternate, and who lie always not necessarily in that order. Find out who is the alternator from the following statements:
 
A: B is the liar. I am the truth-teller
 
B: A is the liar. I am the truth-teller
 
C: I am the liar. A is the truth-teller.
Options: a. A, b. B, c. C, d. Cannot be determined
 
Solution:
 
It has to be C, I am a liar cannot be true as it becomes a paradox and the next statement should be true hence.
 
Because of the above statement, A becomes the truth-teller and hence B becomes the liar.
