| 11. | With the advent of algebraic logic it became apparent however that classical propositional calculus admits other semantics.
|
| 12. | Propositional calculus restricts attention to abstract propositions, those built up from propositional variables using Boolean operations.
|
| 13. | This can shown as follows : Every proof in propositional calculus uses only axioms and the inference rules.
|
| 14. | Truth-functional propositional calculus is a formal system whose formulae may be interpreted as either true or false.
|
| 15. | Schwartz ( 1981 ) proved that the " pa " is equivalent-- classical propositional calculus.
|
| 16. | Sheffer's result was, however, restricted to the propositional calculus, and so, of limited significance.
|
| 17. | A little more of my efforts do survive in the complex of articles concerned with propositional calculus and truth tables.
|
| 18. | In particular, checking whether T entails F in this condition can be done using the rules of the propositional calculus.
|
| 19. | This motivated me to ask the question : Is propositional calculus and logic the core content of formal or mathematical logic?
|
| 20. | In this sense, it is a meta-theorem, comparable to theorems about the soundness or completeness of propositional calculus.
