<!-- '''Task:''' Using your ''Game of Thrones''-universe from above, introduce one binary and one ternary relation. -->


Just like with names, we want to have symbols that we can use in the logical language. For our example, let's take the predicate symbols '''afternoon-snack-of_2''' and '''father-of_2''', and '''talks-with_2'''. (The number 2 indicates that the interpretation consists of pairs, not just of single individual) There interpretation is defined as follows:<br>

Additional material for week 5

Formulae with more than one connective

The video shows how the truth value of a more complex formula can be computed. The example contains two connectives:

kill(malcom,lady-macbeth) ∨ ¬thane(macbeth)

The video shows two different methods: top down and bottom up.

Preparation for week 5

  • Read Levine et al (in prep.), Chapter 2, section 2.
  • Using your model from last week,
  • Give 1 formula with ⊃.
  • Give 1 formule with 2 different connectives (both distinct from ⊃)
  • Provide the step-by-step computation of the truth of your 2 
formulae.
