    Some people have made it so difficult to understand but you are one of few who actual knows how difficult concepts are made up of so many simple concepts.

    You are a living god my lord. all the other philosophy channels on yt are so low quality and with terrible explanations. Somehow you were able to create entire series about logic in a way that made me completely understand it the first time i saw the video. Thank you so much

    Can you do more of these where we need to prove disjunctions or some negations? I feel those are the hardest ones to solve.

    Please, Can you explain what scope of an assumption means in a layman terms? And what does it mean when we call an assumption "open assumption"?

    • @AtticPhilosophy
      @AtticPhilosophy  20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Think of it like this. Assuming it will rain, I might take an umbrella. But on cancelling (or discharging) the assumption, I might not take an umbrella.

    I’m trying to expand the language of predicate logic, and so I need to introduce some new inference rules, but I want to ensure that there are no redundancies. How would I do that?

    • @AtticPhilosophy
      @AtticPhilosophy  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There's 2 main approaches. A semantic approach is to consider, for each rule R in the system, a model for every axiom/rule except R. If there is one, then R isn't redundant. (So, think of each new non-redundant rule as ruling out some models.) Another approach is to use an automated theorem prover to show there are no derivations of any rule from the others.

    Is it the case that Repetition can be proven by IR? If the assumption in line one of the proof is ~A, then that could immediately lead to proof of A by Falsum Introduction.

    • @AtticPhilosophy
      @AtticPhilosophy  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, or more simply, using conjunction intro & elim. That’s also intuitionistically available.

    Any clue on how to derivate material implication (ex: (p > q) to (~p v q); ~(p > q) to (p ^ ~q). I'm struggling to find examples online

    • @AtticPhilosophy
      @AtticPhilosophy  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes - assume the first and prove the second from that. For ~p v q I think you need to use indirect proof, assuming ~(~pvq) then getting a contradiction from those 2 assumptions.
