Ignore the previous message (which I for some reason cannot edit). What I meant to write was:
The lecture Tuesday 16 will start with a crash course on propositional logic. The course is recommendable for everyone (even if those already familiar with with propositional logic).
The lecture Wendesday 17 will start with a crash course on propositional logic. The course is recommendable for everyone (even if those already familiar with with propositional logic).
I have started to lecture Chapter 2. Tomorrow (Wednesday) I will lecture Section 2.3 and 2.4.
I am more or less with lecturing from Chapter 1. Next week we will solve and discuss exercises (see below).
.... not familiar with very elementary first-order logic should consult some textbooks on the subject. There will be a lot of them out there. Just pick a textbook that suits your own taste.
Recommended exercises from Chapter 1:
- Section 1.3.1, page 12: 1, 2 and 3
- Section 1.4.1, page 17: 3, 4 and 5
- Section 1.5.1, page 21: 1 and 6
- Section 1.6.1, page 26: 2, 3 and 5
- Section 1.7.1, page 32: 2 (a)(b)(d)
-
Section 1.7.1 page 32: 7
-
Section 1.9.1, page 38: 1, 2 and 4.
Some of these exercises will be solved in class during the next few weeks.
We will meet tomorrow. We will use this textbook:
- Leary & Kristiansen: A friendly introduction to mathematical logic.
You may buy the book from a number of online bookstores. You my even be able to buy a copy in the bookstore located at the university campus. You may also download the book for free:
