Twelve statements
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
This puzzle is borrowed from here.
Given the following twelve statements, which of them are true?
1. This is a numbered list of twelve statements. 2. Exactly 3 of the last 6 statements are true. 3. Exactly 2 of the even-numbered statements are true. 4. If statement 5 is true, then statements 6 and 7 are both true. 5. The 3 preceding statements are all false. 6. Exactly 4 of the odd-numbered statements are true. 7. Either statement 2 or 3 is true, but not both. 8. If statement 7 is true, then 5 and 6 are both true. 9. Exactly 3 of the first 6 statements are true. 10. The next two statements are both true. 11. Exactly 1 of statements 7, 8 and 9 are true. 12. Exactly 4 of the preceding statements are true.
When you get tired of trying to figure it out in your head, write a program to solve it, and print the correct answer or answers.
Extra credit: also print out a table of near misses, that is, solutions that are contradicted by only a single statement.

Here is the main program, using a generic package Logic. The expression function introduced by the new standard Ada 2012 are very handy for this task.
with Ada.Text_IO, Logic;

function P03(T: Table) return Boolean is (Sum(Half(T, Even)) = 2); -- two of the even
function P04(T: Table) return Boolean is (if T(5) then T(6) and T(7)); -- if 5 is true, then ...
function P05(T: Table) return Boolean is
( (not T(2)) and (not T(3)) and (not T(4)) ); -- none of preceding three
function P06(T: Table) return Boolean is (Sum(Half(T, Odd)) = 4); -- four of the odd

Here is the definition the package Logic:
generic
Number_Of_Statements: Positive;
package Logic is
--types
subtype Indices is Natural range 1 .. Number_Of_Statements;
type Table is array(Indices range <>) of Boolean;
type Predicate is access function(T: Table) return Boolean;
type Statements is array(Indices) of Predicate;
type Even_Odd is (Even, Odd);
-- convenience functions
function Sum(T: Table) return Natural;
function Half(T: Table; Which: Even_Odd) return Table;
end Logic;
And here is the implementation of the "convenience functions" in Logic:
package body Logic is
function Sum(T: Table) return Natural is
Result: Natural := 0;
begin
for I in T'Range loop
if T(I) then
Result := Result + 1;
end if;
end loop;
return Result;
end Sum;
function Half(T: Table; Which: Even_Odd) return Table is
Result: Table(T'Range);
Last: Natural := Result'First - 1;
begin
for I in T'Range loop
if I mod 2 = (if (Which=Odd) then 1 else 0) then
Last := Last+1;
Result(Last) := T(I);
end if;
end loop;
return Result(Result'First .. Last);
end Half;
end Logic;

[edit] Python
Note: we choose to adapt the statement numbering to zero-based indexing in the constraintinfo lambda expressions but convert back to one-based on output.
The program uses brute force to generate all possible boolean values of the twelve statements then checks if the actual value of the statements matches the proposed or matches apart from exactly one deviation. Python's boolean type boolis a subclass of int, so boolean values True, False can be used as integers (1, 0, respectively) in numerical contexts. This fact is used in the lambda expressions that use function sum.
from itertools import product
#from pprint import pprint as pp
constraintinfo = (
(lambda st: len(st) == 12 ,(1, 'This is a numbered list of twelve statements')),
(lambda st: sum(st[-6:]) == 3 ,(2, 'Exactly 3 of the last 6 statements are true')),
(lambda st: sum(st[1::2]) == 2 ,(3, 'Exactly 2 of the even-numbered statements are true')),
(lambda st: (st[5]&st[6]) if st[4] else 1 ,(4, 'If statement 5 is true, then statements 6 and 7 are both true')),
(lambda st: sum(st[1:4]) == 0 ,(5, 'The 3 preceding statements are all false')),
(lambda st: sum(st[0::2]) == 4 ,(6, 'Exactly 4 of the odd-numbered statements are true')),
