... and [1], can be developed, based on Belnap’s logic (see [4] for a version). But we need not stop here. Van Emden has proposed using real numbers in [0, 1] as quantitative truth values [20]. How should such a truth value space be modified if programs are distributed? Similar issues arise for any choi ...

A proof provides a means for guaranteeing such claims. Proofs in mathematics and computer science require a precisely stated proposition to be prove ...

Common sense reasoning adheres to the latter extension, and the former is considere ...

In our formal system F, this method will be called disjunction elimination, but don’t be misled by the ordinary sounding name: it is far more significant ...

Very Basics of Number Theory Definition: An integer n is even iff ∃ integer k such that n = 2k Definition: An integer n is odd iff ∃ integer k such that n = 2k+1 Definition: Let k and n be integers. We say that k divides n (and write k | n) if and only if there exists an integer a such that n = ka. ...

Although both employ values between 0 and 1 that represent something about the symbol or event, it is the meaning of this number that differs. In probability, the number represents the likelihood of an event’s occurrence. In f ...
