So u think u’re a guru, a brainbuster, alright,
Can you  give the answers to these, or any of these, riddles? Also giving  proofs that your answer is correct.


1. in a certain mythical community, politicians always lie,and nonpoliticians always tell the truth. A stranger meets three natives , and asks the first of them if he is a politician. The first native answers the question. The second native then reports that the first native denied being a politician. Then the third native asserts that the first native is really a politician.                                                                           how many of these three natives are politicians?

2. of three prisoners in a certain jail, one had normal vision, the second had only one eye, and the third was totally blind. All were of atleast average intelligence. the  jailer told the prisoners that from three white hats and two red hats he would select three and put them on the prisoners heads. Each was prevented from seeing what colour hat was placed on his own head. They were brought together, and the jailer offered freedom to the prisoner with normal vision  if he could tell what color hat was on his head. The prisoner confessed that he couldn’t tell. next  the jailer offered freedom to the prisoner with only one eye if he could tell what colour hat was on his head. The second prisoner confessed that he couldn’t tell. The jailer didn’t bother making the offer to the third prisoner, but agreed to extend the same terms to him when he made the request. The blind prisoner then smiled broadly and said:
                        “I do not need to have my sight;
                          from what my friends with eyes have said,
                         I clearly see my hat is …………………!”
 
3. on a certain train, the crew consists of three men, the brakeman, the fireman, and          
the engineer. Their names listed in alphabetical order  are Jones, Robinson, and Smith. On the train are also three passengers with corresponding names, Mr.Jones, Mr Robinson  and Mr Smith. The following facts are known:

a. Mr Robinson lives in Detroit.
b. The breakman lives halfway between Detroit and Chicago.
c. Mr Jones earns exactly $20,000 a year.
d. Smith once beat the fireman at billiards.
e. The brakemans next-door neighbor, one of the three passengers mentioned, earns exactly three times as much as the brakeman.
f. The passenger living in Chicago has the same name as the brakeman.

              What is the engineers name?

4. Benno Torelli, genial host at Hamtramck’s most exclusive nightclub, was shot   and killed  by a racketeer gang because he fell behind in his protection payments.
     After considerable effort on the part of the police, five men were brought before the District Attorney,  who asked them what they had to say for themselves. Each of the men made three statements, two true and one false. Their statements were:
       
        LEFTY:”I did not kill Torelli. I never owned a revolver. Spike did it”
            RED:”I did not kill Torelli.  I never owned a revolver. The other guys are all                                    
                     passing  the buck.”
    DOPEY:”I am innocent. I never saw Butch before. Spike is guilty.”
    SPIKE  :”I  am innocent. Butch is the guilty man. Lefty lied when he said I did it.”
    BUTCH:”I did not kill Torelli. Red is the guilty man. Dopey and I are old pals.”
