X?Y:-not(X*Y),X*Z,Y*Z.
Prolog isn't too often useful, but when it is it's just beautiful. We'll use a+b to notate that a is friends with b, a*b that a knows b and a?b that b should be suggested to a or not. The first line simply says that X*Y is true if either X+Y, Y+X or X == Y is true. This implements the ...

PARI/GP ignores spaces between digits, so that 1 8 2, for example is treated as 182. The same could work for perl by replacing the spaces with underscores. I haven't exhausted the entire search space, so there may be better candidates.
A program can be fed to gp as gp -q -f program.gp, or interactively in the repl.

Given an adjacency matrix A, we find the fixed point of starting with B=A and then replacing B by A2B, occasionally clipping values larger than 1 to 1. The kth step of this process is equivalent up to the Clip to finding powers A2k+1, in which the (...

We use k|2<3 to check that k is either 0 or 2. This works because the bit operation |2 sets the bit for place-value 2, so to get a result that's 2 or less, there must be no other bits set.
