Try These Logic Puzzles from the International Logic Olympiad
SHARE

The International Logic Olympiad (ILO) is gaining momentum in only its second year, drawing 36 talented high school students from around the world to compete in a series of logic puzzles and mathematical challenges. The event took place at Stanford University, with teams of students showcasing their problem-solving skills against the scenic backdrop of Palo Alto, California. The winning team, comprised of Luke Song, Zixuan Yin, Kingston Zhang, and Max Yang, attributed their success to teamwork and extensive practice.

The ILO was founded by Stanford computer scientist Michael Genesereth, in collaboration with the educational nonprofit Luminas. Genesereth emphasized the importance of logic in various fields, ranging from medicine to law, highlighting its relevance in navigating today’s complex and rapidly changing world.

While many of the participants have interests in computer science and related fields, some, like Zhang, plan to pursue careers in political science. Zhang noted that the competition’s emphasis on expansive thinking and creative problem-solving will benefit him in his future endeavors.

One unique aspect of the Olympiad is its collaborative nature, with teams working together to tackle complex logic puzzles. Yin shared his experience of working with teammates on challenging problems, emphasizing how the competition brought their friend group closer together.

Here are a few intriguing puzzles from the ILO that you can try with your own group of friends:

  1. Friends: A group of four students must vote on who will lead their review session. The statements about their ballots are provided, and you must determine who voted for whom.
  2. Safe Cracking: A combination safe requires two specific switches to be in the correct position to open it. You need to devise the smallest set of combinations to guarantee success.
  3. Nations: Explore the dynamics between strong and weak nations, considering factors like invasion and annexation. Can you determine if the weak nation will be invaded?
  4. Sudoku Puzzle: Competitors in the ILO had to solve a challenging Sudoku puzzle under time constraints using only pencil and paper.

    These puzzles test your logical reasoning and problem-solving abilities, offering a glimpse into the complex world of logic. If you’re up for the challenge, gather your friends and give these puzzles a try. Who knows, you might discover a new passion for logical thinking and problem-solving.
