mathematics - A party puzzler


At a party, everybody is friend with exactly $22$ of the other persons present. Whenever two persons are friends, they do not have any friends in common. Whenever two persons are not friends, they have exactly six friends (present at the party) in common.

(Note: Friendships are always mutual. Nobody is friend with himself.)
