... A B C means A B C , not A B C .However, you use parentheses anyway, just to be sure that there is no confusion. Wffs composed of statements letters and connectives have truth values that depend on the truth values assigned to their statement letters. We write the truth table for an ...

Oh Yeah? Well, Prove It.
... Proof: If a is an even integer, then a can be written as an integer multiple of 2 (this is the definition of an even integer). Thus, we can write a = 2m for some integer m. Similarly, since b is even, we can write b = 2n for some integer n (not necessarily the same integer as we used to write a, of ...

Biform Theories in Chiron

The background assumptions of the theory and the specifications of the algorithms are usually not part of an algorithmic theory; they are instead part of the informal metatheory of the theory. An algorithmic th ...

Within the last decade, the tools of mathematical logic have been brought to bear on this paradox. It is fair to say that a model which is satisfactory mathematically has been devised. Whether the issue ...

Beginning Deductive Logic
... brave or foolhardy (or both!) to venture an answer to such a question, unless perhaps one has set aside enough time and space to craft at least a sustained essay, or perhaps even a book. Well, we fancy ourselves brave; here goes; all done in but one sentence: Logic is the science and engineering of ...

Counterfactuals
... Noting that the sentences above, in natural language, appear to be unproblematic together, our sketched analysis of counterfactuals should give the same result. Unfortunately, it does precisely the opposite. In order for the first counterfactual to be true, φ → ψ must be true in every world sufficie ...
