Logic Tutorial: Conditional Introduction

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short introduction to the conditional introduction rule in formal logic. It explains the rule by appealing to an example of hypothetical syllogism.

This tutorial is a short introduction to the conditional introduction rule in formal logic.

Logic Tutorial: Negation Rules

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short tutorial on the negation introduction and negation elimination rules in formal logic.  It looks at the Fitch-style rules, as opposed to the Lemmon-style rules. It illustrates the rules by appealing to a hypothetical computer program that plays chess, but wins every game (which is contradictory, because if the program plays both sides, at least one side will not win).

This tutorial is a short introduction to the negation rules in formal logic.

Logic Tutorial: Disjunction Elimination

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short tutorial on the disjunciton elimination rule in formal logic. It draws an analogy between disjunction elimination and a catch-22 situation, and explains the natural deduction rule in these terms.

This tutorial is a short introduction to the disjunction elimination rule in formal logic.

Logic Tutorial: Disjunction Introduction

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short tutorial on the disjunction introduction rule in formal logic.  It appeals to a natural-language argument about ice cream to illustrate the point, and gives several example inferences.

This tutorial is a short introduction to the disjunction introduction rule in formal logic.

Logic Tutorial: Universal Introduction

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short tutorial on the universal introduction rule in first-order logic.  It employs a pair of examples to illustrate its point, and discusses the restrictions (in particular, the requirement that the constant be arbitrary) of universal introduction.

This tutorial is a short introduction to the universal introduction rule in formal logic.

Logic Tutorial: Existential Elimination

Image placeholder for video.  This video is a short tutorial on the existential elimination rule in first-order logic.  It employs an example argument to illustrate its point, and discusses the restrictions of existential elimination.

This tutorial is a short introduction to the existential elimination rule in formal logic.
