Logical Operators:
Logical Equivalence: Two propositions are logically equivalent if they have the
same truth values under all possible scenarios. This is denoted by
≡
≡.
Inference Rules: Inference rules are used to derive new propositions from existing
ones based on logical principles. Common inference rules include modus ponens,
modus tollens, hypothetical syllogism, and disjunctive syllogism.
Predicate Logic: Predicate logic extends propositional logic by allowing the use of
predicates and quantifiers to express relationships between objects and properties.
Predicates are expressions that can be true or false depending on the values of
variables, while quantifiers such as "for all" (∀) and "there exists" (∃) are used
to specify the scope of the variables.
