There were these five call centre executives: A, B, C, D and E who sat gossiping during their lunch time on the cubicle numbers that they had. Cubical numbers are natural numbers.
The table gives the details of the conversation that these friends had between them.
Deciphering the table:
From the third row, C says to D that the difference in their cubicle numbers is 6.
Further, whenever the person talks to another person who sits in a cubicle numbered higher than him he would always speak the truth and whenever he speaks to the person who sits in a cubicle numbered lower than him he would tell a lie.
