Question

What is "wrong" with the following paragraph? Study this paragraph and all things in it. What is vitally wrong with it? Actually, nothing in it is wrong, but you must admit that it is most unusual. Don't just zip through it quickly, but study it scrupulously. With luck you should spot what is so particular about it and all words found in it. Can you say what it is? Tax your brains and Don't miss a word or a symbol. It isn't all that difficult.(*) (*) In Code: A Mathematical Journey by Sarah Flannery, David Flannery

Explanation / Answer

The answer is : "nothing".

Read this paragraph again and again. I did the same. Actually whatever is written in the paragraph seems true everytime you go through it.

Now try to understand the question. It is asked that what is "Wrong" in the following paragraph?

There is only 1 occurence where the word "wrong" is mentioned and that statement gives the answer.

The 3rd statement says that , actually, nothing in it is wrong. That means nothing is wrong. That means nothing = wrong.

This is a little bit tricky and logical, but gives pleasure when you solve it. :)
