A Knave can't say that statement in this situation as he must always lie. And if he said it, it's impossible to be a lie if you think about it. So A must be a knight and since he always tells the truth B has to be a Knave.

Reasoning - Tim: "I am a joker but Tom is a knave" Tom: "I am not a joker but Tim is a knight"...

Tim: "I am a joker but Tom is a knave"
Tom: "I am not a joker but Tim is a knight"
Jim: "When Tim and I are in the same room, Tim always lies. But when Tom and I are in the same room, he tells the truth"

Knights tell the truth, knaves lie, jokers just mimic anyone who are in the same room with them
There is only 1 knight, 1 knave and 1 joker
Tim and Tom were in the same room while Jim was outside.

Who was the knight?

There is only one correct way to arrange twelve people into two rows using the following rules:
Six people A,B,C,D,E and F are sitting in row-1 facing North, and six people P,Q,R,S,T and U are sitting in row-2 facing South, but not necessarily in this order.

Row-2 is above row-1, so every person from one row faces a different person from the other row.

The following information is known about them.

1) B is to the immediate left of C, who does not face Q. Q is third to the left of R.
2) Neither Q nor C sit at the ends. B is to the right of F and D.

5) S is not an immediate neighbor of P.
