商品描述

A First Course in Logic is an introduction to first-order logic suitable for first and second year mathematicians and computer scientists. There are three components to this course: propositional logic; Boolean algebras; and predicate/first-order, logic. Logic is the basis of proofs in mathematics -- how do we know what we say is true? -- and also of computer science -- how do I know this program will do what I think it will?

Surprisingly little mathematics is needed to learn and understand logic (this course doesn't involve any calculus). The real mathematical prerequisite is an ability to manipulate symbols: in other words, basic algebra. Anyone who can write programs should have this ability.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《邏輯學初級課程》是一本適合一、二年級數學家和計算機科學家的一階邏輯入門書籍。這門課程包含三個部分:命題邏輯、布林代數和謂詞/一階邏輯。邏輯是數學證明的基礎,我們如何知道我們所說的是真實的?同時也是計算機科學的基礎,我如何知道這個程序會按照我想的那樣運行?

令人驚訝的是,學習和理解邏輯並不需要太多數學知識(這門課程不涉及微積分)。真正的數學先備知識是能夠操作符號的能力,換句話說,基本代數知識。任何會寫程式的人都應該具備這種能力。
