In an Island the natives lie and visitors speak truth. A man wants to know whether a salesman beside him in a bar is a native or visitor. He asked him to ask a woman beside him whether she is a native or visitor. He replied "she says she is a visitor". Then he knew that the salesman is a native or visitor. salesman is in which category , native or visitor?

• woman always answers she is a visitor
  
  if woman is native, she lies by saying "i am visitor"
  if woman is visitor, she tell truth that " i am visitor"
  
  since the man told "she said she is a visitor", he is speaking truth.
  
  hence he is visitor.

• The answer is he is a visitor i.e. he is telling the truth
  
  Reason:
  If he was a native i.e. a liar then his answer would would have been "she says she is a native" for both cases because
  If she was visitor: she would have said she is a visitor and he would have lied that she is a native
  If she was native: she would have lied and again say that she is a visitor and he would have lied that she is a native.
