Logic - Wed May 7

We discussed some important properties of relations and worked through a bunch more symbolizations in relational predicate logic with identity.

I'm pretty sure my symbolization of "In China some couples have more than two children" was the longest logical formula I have ever written in my life (about 25 feet, across two blackboards!).

Reminder: participation logs due Friday

On Friday: Prove it or Lose It! (with Zip Martin)
