A Guard is stationed at a secret club.

His new club is very exclusive so he came up with his own secretive code so members could access the building he is Guarding with no hassle.

One member walks up and the Guard says, “10”. The man responds “11” and is let through.

Another man walks up and the Guard says, “25”. The man responds “23” and is also let through.

A third man walks up and the Guard says again “27” to which the man responds “29” and it let through.

You walk up to the Guard who says “78”. What Number Do You Say So The Guard Lets You In?

A spy wanted to get into a secret club for some information.

But to enter you had to know there’s a secret password.

He waits outside and spies on two members.

When Member 1 knocks on the door, the guard knocks back 6 times and the member replies with 3 knocks and he was let in.

When member 2 knocks on the door, the guard knocks 12 times and the member replies with 6 knocks and he was let in.

So the spy thought he had cracked the logic so he knocked on the door.

The guard knocked ten times and the spy replied with 5 knocks but he was not let in.

What was the correct secret password and what’s the logic behind it?

The Antisocial Club meets every week at Jim's Bar. Since they are so antisocial, however, everyone always sits as far as possible from the other members, and no one ever sits right next to another member. Because of this, the 25-stool bar is almost always less than half full and unfortunately for Jim the members that don't sit at the bar don't order any drinks. Jim, however, is pretty smart and makes up a new rule: The first person to sit at the bar has to sit at one of two particular stools. If this happens, then the maximum number of members will sit at the bar. Which stools must be chosen? Assume the stools are numbered 1 to 25 and are arranged in a straight line.

Sometimes I boldly say, "Here I stand."
Other times, as in a trick, I hide inside.
I'm almost everywhere, it's not like I'm banned,
So I know you'll easily find me, in time.
If I were to say, "I'm in 'this' and not in 'that,'"
I'm sure you could find me in nothing flat.

So who, or what, am I?
