Propositional logic: Syntax<br />

Propositional logic is the simplest logic—illustrates basic ideas<br />

The proposition symbols P 1 , P 2 etc are sentences<br />

♦ If S is a sentence, ¬S is a sentence (negation)<br />

♦ If S 1 , S 2 are sentences, S 1 ∧ S 2 is a sentence (conjunction)<br />

♦ If S 1 , S 2 are sentences, S 1 ∨ S 2 is a sentence (disjunction)<br />

♦ If S 1 , S 2 are sentences, S 1 → S 2 is a sentence (implication)<br />

♦ If S 1 , S 2 are sentences, S 1 ↔ S 2 is a sentence (biconditional)<br />
