One man was caught at the King's property. Then he was brought to the king by his guard.
Then the King asked him "Give a statement,
if statement is true, i'll let my hungry lion eat you and if the statement is false, i'll have you killed by a buffalo." But at the end the king had to release the man without doing any harm to him.
what did the man say to the king?

-
- the man would have said that he will be killed by the buffaloes....
If the statement is true then he should be killed by the hungry lion
but then the statement will become wrong..
so neither of the punished will be given to the man - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- NOTHING..
beacause if he say any statement king will die by either lion or buffalo. so the king will leave him. - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)

- The person is mute. He said nothing.
- 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- The argument that : He was mute/dumb is false, because he could have given statement in any other form, like writing,.
(Just for a gag : Hungry lions means, the lion could have already been dead by the time, by its hunger, if it was hungry for very very long.)
He could have given a statement that would have left the king in ambiguity about the decision that whether it was true or false.
Example 1 : "This statement is false"
It cannot be inferred if the above statement is exactly true or false.
Example 2 : m4maths is the best online site.
It may be true or false according to one's perspective (and yes the above statement is true for all of us)
Many similar examples can be given which are neither true nor false. - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
