Propositional and Predicate Logic

This year, my logic tutorials take place on Thursdays at 14:00 in the room S6.

Credit requirements

You need to get 120 points during the semester to get the credit. There are three ways how to get the credit:

What does it mean to be active? The main goal is to motivate you to ask questions and answer my questions. Activity is thus defined quite broadly, e.g. solving and exercise, answering a question (regardless of the correctness of the answer, if you at least try to answer correctly, i.e. you are not just trolling), or even asking a question related to the discussed matter.

Homeworks

  1. k-colorable graphs and SAT - deadline November 16 (extended from Nov. 9), in the evening, see linked zip for details.
  2. propositional logic - deadline is November 23 before the tutorials, see the linked pdf for questions
  3. predicate logic - deadline is January 4, before the tutorials, see the linked pdf for questions
