Course Description
Unlock the power of logical reasoning with “Mastering Propositional & First-Order Logic in Discrete Mathematics.” This comprehensive course is designed to guide you step by step through the fascinating world of logic, making it accessible and engaging for learners of all levels. Whether you’re a student, a professional, or someone passionate about mathematics and reasoning, this course will provide you with the tools to master propositional and first-order logic.
What is Propositional and First-Order Logic?
Logic forms the backbone of reasoning in mathematics, computer science, and philosophy. Propositional logic deals with propositions and their relationships through logical connectives such as AND, OR, NOT, and IMPLIES. First-order logic goes further, incorporating quantifiers and predicates to represent more complex statements and relationships. These concepts are not just theoretical—they are fundamental to problem-solving in real-world applications like programming, artificial intelligence, and data analysis.
What Will You Learn?
This course offers a structured and in-depth exploration of propositional and first-order logic. You’ll start with the basics, understanding the law of excluded middle, contradiction, and compound propositions. From there, you’ll delve into key topics such as:
- Logical connectives: negation, conjunction, disjunction, and implications.
- Advanced concepts like tautologies, equivalences, and logical fallacies.
- Rules of inference for constructing and validating logical arguments.
- Applications of first-order logic, including predicates and quantifiers.
Throughout the course, you’ll engage with real-world examples, practice exercises, and quizzes designed to reinforce your understanding and help you apply what you’ve learned.
