Rigid
These will always give you rules that fill specific numbered slots. For example, it may say "Robert is third. Debbie is fifth".
Example
Six students, Anthony, Barb, Carlos, David, Eddie, and Faith will stand on stage in order from highest to lowest left to right. Each student stands in one and only one position.
The following conditions apply:
- Anthony is higher than Carlos
- Eddie is first or last
- Either Eddie or Faith is third
- Barb is immediately to the right of Eddie

Steps:
- Write out players
A,B,C,D,E,F
- Write out rules
A...C
E=1, or E=6
E=3 or F=3
Always EB
- Make deducations
E must be 1 (Why? If its 6 then B must be next, IMPOSSIBLE!)
- Draw your sketch!
