1) Long before H. G. Wells wrote The Invisible Man, Plato (428– 348 BC), in The Republic, described a shepherd named Gyges who, according to a Greek legend, discovers a ring that enables him to become invisible when he turns its bezel. Gyges uses his magical powers to seduce the queen, kill the king, and take over an empire. If we have similar powers, why should we feel bound by moral constraints? In particular, if professionals are sufficiently powerful to pursue their desires without being caught for malfeasance, why should they care about the good of the wider public?
1. Given the following, can you prove the unicorn is mythical? How about Magi- cal? and Horned? (adapted from Barwise and Etchemendy (1993)). if the unicorn is mythical, then it is immortal, but if it is not mythical, then it is a mortal mammal. If the unicorn is either immortal or a mammal, then it is horned. The unicorn is magical if it is horned. 2. Which of the following are correct?

On an island, a group of people are living until a visitor arrives with an odd directive: everyone with blue eyes must leave the island as quickly as possible. Every evening, a flight will depart at 8:00. Everyone can see the colour of everyone else's eyes, but they are blind to their own (nor is anyone allowed to tell them). They also do not know the number of persons who have blue eyes, but they do know that at least one person has them. How long will it take the folks with blue eyes to leave?

Correct answer will be upvoted else downvoted. Computer science. You are provided a program with that comprises of n directions. At first a solitary variable x is doled out to 0. A while later, the guidelines are of two kinds: increment x by 1; decline x by 1. You are given m inquiries of the accompanying organization: question l r — what number of particular qualities is x appointed to if every one of the directions between the l-th one and the r-th one comprehensive are disregarded and the rest are executed without changing the request? Input The primary line contains a solitary integer t (1≤t≤1000) — the number of testcases. Then, at that point, the depiction of t testcases follows. The main line of each testcase contains two integers n and m (1≤n,m≤2⋅105) — the number of directions in the program and the number of questions. The second line of each testcase contains a program — a line of n characters: each character is either '+' or '- ' — addition and…
Can I have an answer for this one, please?
For (∃ x)(P(x,b)) Would an example of this being true if the domain was all the Avengers and x was green skin, then "b" being the Hulk would make this true. Am example of this being false would be: If the domain was all integers and x was positive, even integers and "b" was integers greater than zero.
Five philosophers are sitting at a round table. In the center of the table is a bowl of rice. Between each pair of philosophers is a single chopstick. A philosopher is in one of the three states: thinking, hungry or eating. At various times, a thinking philosopher gets hungry. A hungry philosopher attempts to pick one of the adjacent chopsticks, then the other (not both at the same time). If the philosopher is able to obtain the pair of chopsticks (they are not already in use), then the philosopher eats for a period of time. After eating, the philosopher puts the chopsticks down and returns to thinking. Write a monitor for the dining philosopher’s problem.
Five schoolgirls sat for an examination. Their parents – so they thought – showed an undue degree of interest in the result. They therefore agreed that, in writing home about the examination, each girl should make one true statement and one untrue one.

Q. There is an island that has two kinds of inhabitants, knights, who always tellthe truth, and their opposites, knaves, who always lie. It is assumed that every inhabitant of theisland is either a knight or a knave. Below there are 3 inhabitants, who are denoted by A, B andC.A. What are A, B and C if A says “If B is a knave then C is a knave”, and B says “If Cis a knight then A is a knave”? Briefly explain your reasoning.B. What are A,B and C if A says “B is a knight and C is a knight”, and B says “A is aknight if and only if C is a knave”? Briefly explain your reasoning.
