1. There are three islanders: A says “If B and I are both telling the truth, then so is C”, B says “If C is telling the truth, then A is lying”, and C says “It is not the case that all three of us are telling the truth.” Using propositional variables a, b, and c to represent the truth of the statements of A, B, and C respectively, we can represent the problem by the three premises a ↔...
