1. 100 Perfect logicians have had their foreheads painted a color.
2. The 100 Perfect logicians are all escorted into a large, lighted room.
3. At least 1 of their foreheads is painted blue.
Protocol
1. The 100 Perfect Logicians are not allowed to communicate in any way.
2. The lights are then shut off.
3. Any logician that believes his forehead is painted blue will then leave the room while the lights are off.
4. The lights are turned back on and the room is left with only the logicians who still do not know if their head is painted blue.
The Logicians
1. Each logician knows that everyone else is a perfect logician as well.
2. The logicians do not know what color their own forehead is painted.
3. The logicians all have their foreheads painted blue.
4. Remember that they cannot communicate.
For you to solve:
* How many times (if ever) must the lights be turned on and then off for there to be no remaining logicians in the room?
