A person was murdered in a party. There were 5 people involved. The murder weapon used was a gun & was killed at the dining hall.

 

weapons(inputs)         location:

  gun = 1                         kitchen = 0

 rope =0                          bedroom = 0

 axe = 0                           livingroom = 0

poison = 0                       dining hall = 1

 

 

Conditions:

Joseph Kitchen & livingroom w/ rope & gun

Mary bedroom & lvingroom w/ poison & rope

Peter bedroom & dining w/ axe & poison

Julie dining & bedroom w/ gun & poison

one possible way of solving your assignment -

$data['Joseph'] = array('loc'=>array('kitchen','livingroom'),'wep'=>array('rope','gun'));
$data['Julie'] = array('loc'=>array('dining','bedroom'),'wep'=>array('gun','poison'));
// ... other data as desired

$wep = 'gun';
$loc = 'dining';
$found = false;
foreach($data as $person=>$arr){
    if(in_array($wep,$arr['wep']) && in_array($loc,$arr['loc'])){
        $found = $person;
        break; // stop at first match
    }
}

if($found){
    echo "$found did it.";
} else {
    echo "No match.";
}
