General information

Material for week 5

Homework

  • Work through this wiki page.
  • Read: Levine et al., Chapter 2, Section 2
  • Complex formulae:
  • Give 2 complex formulae with one logical connective each. (Use different connectives)
  • Provide the step-by-step computation of the truth value of your two formulae.
  • For the compuation, watch the videos below.

Video

The following video presents the step-by-step computation of the truth value of two formulae with connectives. The example uses a model based on Shakespeare's play Macbeth. The two formulae are:

  • ¬ king(lady-macbeth)
  • king(duncan) ∨ king(lady-macbeth)

The next 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.

Homework

  • Work through this wiki page.
  • Atomic formulae: Using your model from this week's homework,
  • Give 2 atomic formulae (one true, one false)
  • Provide the step-by-step computation of the truth value of your 2 atomic formulae.
  • For the computation, watch the videos on the wiki page.
