    Thank you, Kimberly, for your videos. I finally understood deductive thinking (going from universal to particular: particular being necessarily true when the said particular belongs to the group of the universal), premise, logical symbols etc. thanks to your videos. I also read an article on inductive and deductive thinking on Wikipedia, and inductive thinking clicked as well. The definition on Wikipedia was horrible, but I got that inductive thinking is the opposite of deductive thinking i.e. Going from the particular instance(s) to universal. I also understood that inductive conclusions can never be true but their likelihood of being true can be increased. However even a single instance to the contrary of the conclusion leads to a revision of the conclusion (ideally).

  • @teemmarley5809
    @teemmarley5809 Před 2 lety +2

    Resolution:
    Just remember p->q has same truth table with ~p or q
    so, if ~p or r is same as p->r. Therefore we can replace p with r in p or q, which is same as r or q.

    Just to make sure I got this right: An argument is the CLAIM that (p1 and p2 and ... pN) imply q. A VALID argument is an argument for that this claim holds. Is that correct?

    for the second example, can we use hypothetical syllogism? p-> not q, -q implies not r, therefore p implies r, then using modus ponens since p is true so is r?

      The first step was q. Using the steps we arrive at r. So q implies r.

    • @tonynguyen4603

  • @MikeTheGreatCC12
    @MikeTheGreatCC12 Před 3 lety +1

    Can someone explain how to get the 3rd step which takes place around 15:10?
    Why can't you just write q instead of p implies q?

    • @SawFinMath
      @SawFinMath  Před 3 lety +1

      You have to have a reason for every step. I can't just say "q" without a logical equivalence. So I have to state the rules I am using. In this case, that is simplification and modus ponens.

    • @nicklasmunksgaardlarsen2436
      @nicklasmunksgaardlarsen2436 Před 3 lety

      I think the video unfortunately is slightly open for misinterpretation in this exact segment unless you observe quite carefully. It also took me a while to understand what was being done.
      So the rule of simplification that is used was explained in general by p and q as variable names, which unfortunately also were the specific variable names of the logical statement we investigated. So lets instead explain the simplification rule by using myVar1 and myVar2: From the knowledge that myVar1 AND myVar2 is true, we can infer that myVar1 is true (and equivalently that myVar2 is true). Now to take this general simplification rule and apply it to the example, we would recognize myVar1 as p, and myVar2 as "If p then q". Now it must be since that the premise states that p AND (if p then q) is true, it also follows that both p is true, and (if p then q) is true.

  • @waseemqaffaf5715
    @waseemqaffaf5715 Před rokem

    For the disjunction rule, you took the r.
    But, according to the formula, u should take the s to be true!?
    (p or q) and not q then q
    you did
    (p or q) and not q then p.
    Are they interchangeable ??
    Kinda confused rn!!

    Can we just say:

    q→(u∧t)
    ∴ q→(p∧t)
    2. ¬s
    (p∧t)→(r∨s)
    ∴ (p∧t)→r
    3. q→(p∧t)
    (p∧t)→r
    ∴ q→r

    • @fullfungo
      @fullfungo Před rokem

      Sure, by contraposition law, from (¬p → ¬q) we derive (q → p).
      Now from (¬r → q) and (q → p) we derive that (¬r → p) by hypothetical syllogism.
      Now we know that (r → p) and (¬r → p).
      The last step is the disjunction elimination rule: all we need to invoke is the law of excluded middle (r ∨ ¬r), so (p) follows.
