While the Knowledge (Logic) skill cannot be used to learn the lore of creatures, it can be used to predict the "programming" of mindless creatures, such as constructs, vermin, oozes and some undead.  In these cases, the DC of the check equals 10 + the monster's CR. A successful check allows you to predict how the creature will react to its current circumstances (typically, this information is listed in the "Combat Tactics" section of the creature's bestiary entry).  Making such a check will allow the player to know the information  in the "Combat Tactics" section.  The DM may read it to them, or allow the players to read it themselves.
