Prerequisites
Introduction to Logic
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The course follows the course Introduction to Logic. We deal with several logic systems, the last one, Clause Axiomatic System, is used as a basis for logic programming. In the course, the students deal mainly with theoretical bases of logic programming, ie the basic idea, possibilities and procedures. We move from the procedures demonstrated in clause Logic to programming in the Prolog programming language.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to:
- use deduction and derivation in logical systems;
- describe the Clause axiomatic system;
- apply principles of logic programming to a simple practical problem.
Syllabus
  • 1.-2. Deduction and derivation of conclusion.
  • 3. Formal systems, axioms, deduction.
  • 4.-5. Systems of natural deduction.
  • 6.-8. Clausal logic.
  • 9. Clausal axiomatic system.
  • 9.-11. Logic programming in Prolog.
  • 12.-13. Principles of logic programming.
