Great circle course 2012-01-25
Hervé pose la question :
On the earth, the mathematical formula giving the distance between two points, and the initial course for a boat on the great circle is well known. I need to find the inverse formula, ie knowing an initial position on earth, and the initial course of the boat, and the distance to run on the great circle, the formula gives the final position (longitude and latitude).

A problem in logic 2012-01-19
Ghader pose la question :
The puzzle below I know the answer to; because someone told me! My question is: how could I answer it using logic, maths, etc. what field of inquiry does this kind of problem fall into? Puzzle: You are in a room with two men: one is a compulsive liar and the other is a compulsive honest. There are two doors: one leading to heaven, the other to hell. The two men know which door leads to where. You want to go to heaven but are allowed only ONE question from one or the other of the two men. What would that question be? [The question to ask, from either man, is: "if I asked the OTHER man which door leads to heaven, which door would he point?". You would then choose the other door.] Has this answer got any basis in logic or maths at all?
