Logic Logic (from the Greek λογική‚ logike)[1] has two meanings: first‚ it describes the use of valid reasoning in some activity; second‚ it names the normative study of reasoning or a branch thereof.[2][3] In the latter sense‚ it features most prominently in the subjects of philosophy‚ mathematics‚ and computer science. Logic was studied in several ancient civilizations‚ including India‚[4] China‚[5] Persia and Greece. In the West‚ logic was established as a formal discipline by Aristotle‚ who

Religion and Logic Make Human Being Instead of being incompatible with each other‚ religion‚ referring to human being’s thought about what a human being is and why‚ provides some perceptual knowledge to us while logic‚ referring to both the study of modes of reasoning (which are valid and which are fallacious) and the use of valid reasoning[1]‚ gives us rational view about what a human being is‚ thus‚ helping us to become more human being. Religion and logic are not incompatible. Analytically

Mathematical logic From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Mathematical logic is a subfield of mathematics exploring the applications of formal logic to mathematics. Topically‚ mathematical logic bears close connections to metamathematics‚ the foundations of mathematics‚ and theoretical computer science.[1] The unifying themes in mathematical logic include the study of the expressive power of formal systems and the deductive power of formal proof systems. Mathematical logic is often divided into

IMSC 500 TERM PAPER FUZZY LOGIC How can a logic which is "fuzzy" be useful? As humans‚ we often rely on imprecise expressions like "usually"‚ "expensive"‚ or "far". But the comprehension of a computer is limited to a black-white‚ everything-or-nothing‚ or true-false mode of thinking. Within conventional logic‚ terms can be only "true" or "false" i.e. either 0 or 1. Fuzzy logic allows a generalization of conventional logic. It provides for terms between "true" and "false" like "almost true"

Mathematical logic is something that has been around for a very long time. Centuries Ago Greek and other logicians tried to make sense out of mathematical proofs. As time went on other people tried to do the same thing but using only symbols and variables. But I will get into detail about that a little later. There is also something called set theory‚ which is related with this. In mathematical logic a lot of terms are used such as axiom and proofs. A lot of things in math can be proven‚ but there

Question #1: Please read Problem 3 at the end of Chapter 17 regarding the lawsuit by alleged thief Mr. Mapp against Gimbels Department Store. Under what theory might Mr. Mapp argue that Gimbels is liable for the assault committed against Mapp by Mr. DiDomenico‚ an employee of J.C. Penney’s? Would Mr. Mapp be successful under the theory you chose? Why or why not? Did the Gimbels security woman allow DiDomenico to assist in her store? Agency theory turns on a few items in a balancing act: (i) who
