% Problem  : Knights and Knaves #36
% Version  : [Sto95] axioms.
%            Theorem formulation : Definite answer "yes".
% English  : On an island, there live exactly two types of people: knights
%            and knaves. Knights always tell the truth and knaves always
%            lie. I landed on the island, met two inhabitants, asked one of
%            them: "Is one of you a knight?" and he answered me. What can
%            be said about the types of the asked and the other person
%            depending on the answer I get?
