Re: Riddle of the day
...Correct...
Explanation:
B is either a knight or a knave. Suppose he is a knight. A and C must then be the same type, as B says. C is lying when he says B is a knave, therefore C is a knave. If C is a knave, A is also.
Suppose B is a knave, THen A and C are different. C is telling the truth when he says B is a knave, so that C must be a knight. Because A and C are different, A must be a knave. In either case A is a knave.
So technically, both your answers are correct?
