Introduction Guides
Start your journey with our foundational guides covering the core concepts and principles of formal logic.
Whether you're a student, educator, or professional, these comprehensive tutorials will help you master the fundamentals of logical reasoning, from basic propositional logic to advanced predicate calculus and Boolean algebra.
Introduction to Logic→
A comprehensive introduction to the study of logic, its branches, historical context, and applications across various disciplines.
Introduction to Propositional Calculus→
Learn about propositions, truth tables, logical operators, and how to construct and evaluate logical expressions in propositional logic.
Introduction to Predicate Logic→
Explore predicate logic (first-order logic), which extends propositional logic with predicates, quantifiers, and the ability to reason about objects and their properties.
Introduction to Boolean Algebra→
Discover the mathematical foundations of Boolean algebra, its laws and theorems, and its applications in digital systems and computer science.
Introduction to Modal Logic→
Learn about modal logic, including necessity and possibility operators, possible worlds semantics, axiom systems, and applications in philosophy, computer science, and AI.
Truth Tables→
Master the fundamentals of truth tables, learn how to construct them for any logical expression, and use them to analyze logical equivalences and validate arguments.
Logic Gates & Digital Circuits→
Explore how Boolean logic is implemented in hardware through logic gates (AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR) and how these gates combine to form digital circuits that power modern computing.
Logical Fallacies→
Learn to identify and avoid common errors in reasoning, from informal fallacies like ad hominem and straw man arguments to formal fallacies in deductive reasoning.
Logic in Practice
Discover how logic is applied in real-world fields and technologies. These guides explore the practical applications of logical reasoning in artificial intelligence, programming, mathematics, philosophy, and linguistics.
Logic in Artificial Intelligence→
Explore how logic forms the foundation of AI systems, from knowledge representation and inference engines to machine learning and natural language processing.
Logic in Programming→
Learn how Boolean logic, operators, and logical reasoning are essential to writing code, from control flow and conditionals to program verification and testing.
Logic in Mathematics→
Understand how logic forms the foundation of mathematics, from proof techniques and mathematical induction to set theory, quantifiers, and the philosophy of mathematical truth.
Logic in Philosophy→
Explore the deep relationship between logic and philosophy, covering the philosophy of logic, modal systems, argument analysis, paradoxes, and the nature of logical truth.
Logic in Linguistics→
Discover how formal logic illuminates natural language structure and meaning, from compositional semantics and quantification to presupposition, modality, and computational linguistics.
Why Learn Logic?
