Three Idols
 

Three Idols
The Problem:

Classic:
Three gods A, B, and C are called, in some order, True, False, and Random. True always speaks truly, False always speaks falsely, but whether Random speaks truly or falsely is a completely random matter. Your task is to determine the identities of A, B, and C by asking three yes-no questions; each question must be put to exactly one god. The gods understand English, but will answer all questions in their own language, in which the words for yes and no are ‘da’ and ‘ja’, in some order. You do not know which word means which.

Seen this before, so I will refrain from answering.

Word puzzles aren't the best on the internet cause someone will google it and give you a google answer.

Some of the people at my company use a variation of this brain teaser when asking job candidates problem-solving questions in interviews.

The answer? Well, :boobs: of course. Next!

I am too lazy for this kind of nonsense.

I just looked up the answer and was too lazy to even read the answer let alone figure it out. :lol:

The answer is 42

But what is the question?

I figured it out.

True is Simon, and False is Randy.

Paula, is obviously Random.
