Scope (logic)

In logic, the scope of a quantifier or a quantification is the range in the formula where the quantifier "engages in". It is put right after the quantifier, often in parentheses. Some authors describe this as including the variable put right after the forall or exists symbol. In the formula ∀xP, for example, P (or xP) is the scope of the quantifier ∀x (or ∀). A variable in the formula is free, if and only if it does not occur in the scope of any quantifier for that variable. A term is free for a variable in the formula (i.e. free to substitute that variable that occurs free), if and only if that variable does not occur free in the scope of any quantifier for any variable in the term.

Logic: The Structure of Reason

As a tool for characterizing rational thought, logic cuts across many philosophical disciplines and lies at the core of mathematics and computer science. Drawing on Aristotle’s Organon, Russell’s Principia Mathematica, and other central works, this program tracks the evolution of logic, be

Scope Ambiguity - Semantics in Linguistics

We take a look at Scope Ambiguity in this #semantics and #syntax video in #linguistics. We look at logical form to see how we can represent this in a tree structure to get two meanings. We also look at a little trick of translating predicate logic sentences with more than one quantifier.

Understand Domain and Range

Understand the domain and range of a function. The domain is the set of all values that can be input into a function and the respective output values are the range. There are restriction to the domain in terms of the real number system which the video will explain.
