This document contains lecture notes on logic and proofs. It introduces logical arguments with premises and conclusions. It explains valid and sound arguments. It also introduces Fitch notation for representing logical proofs and shows examples of basic rules like introduction and elimination rules for identity. It discusses what constitutes a proof and provides examples of proofs in Fitch notation. It also discusses proving that conclusions do not follow from premises by providing counterexamples.
JEE Mathematics/ Lakshmikanta Satapathy/ Theory of probability part 10/ Bernoulli trials and Binomial distribution of probability of Bernoulli trials and probability function with example
Accounting for uncertainty is a crucial component in decision making (e.g., classification) because of ambiguity in our measurements.
Probability theory is the proper mechanism for accounting for uncertainty.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Normal labor is also termed spontaneous labor, defined as the natural physiological process through which the fetus, placenta, and membranes are expelled from the uterus through the birth canal at term (37 to 42 weeks
How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.

2. Introducing Arguments...
Premise1, premise2… conclusion!
Or: conclusion - because premise1,...
E.g.
● All men are mortal; Superman is a man, hence
Superman is mortal
● Pavlova is a man: after all, Pavlova is mortal,
and all men are mortal
3. Introducing Arguments...
Premise1, premise2… conclusion!
Or: conclusion - because: premise1,...
E.g.
● All men are mortal; Superman is a man,
hence Superman is mortal
● Pavlova is a man: after all, Pavlova is mortal,
and all men are mortal
4. Arguments
● Valid arguments (true, assuming premises
are true)
● Sound arguments (valid, and premises are
true)
5. Fitch Notation (LPL version)
All cactuses have needles
Prickly pear is a cactus
Prickly pear has needles
Fitch Bar
Conclusion
Premises
6. What is a Proof?
Definition. Proof is a step-by-step
demonstration that a conclusion follows from
premises.
Counterexample:
I ride my bicycle every day
The probability of an accident is very low
I will never have an accident
7. Good Example of a Proof
1. Cube(c)
2. c=b
3. Cube(b)
= Elim: 1,2
8. Elimination Rule
Aka the Indiscernibility of Identicals
Aka Substitution Principle (weaker than Liskov’s)
Aka Identity Elimination
If P(a) and a = b, then P(b).
E.g.
x2 - 1 = (x+1)*(x-1)
x2 > x 2 - 1
x2 > (x+1)*(x-1)
13. F-notation (specific to LPL book)
(Has nothing to do with System F)
We include in intermediate conclusions
For example:
P1
P2
…
Pn
S1
S2
…
Sm
S
1. a = b
2. a = a
3. b = a
= Intro
= Elim: 2, 1
19. Now, How Does It Work?
From premises SameSize(x, x) and x = y, prove
SameSize(y, x).
1. SameSize(x, x)
2. x = y
…
?. SameSize(y, x)
20. Now, How Does It Work? (take 2)
From premises SameSize(x, x) and x = y, prove
SameSize(y, x).
1.
2.
…
?.
?.
SameSize(x, x)
x = y
y = x
SameSize(y, x)
= Elim: 1, ?
21. Now, How Does It Work? (take 3)
From premises SameSize(x, x) and x = y, prove
SameSize(y, x).
1.
2.
…
3.
4.
5.
SameSize(x, x)
x = y
y = y
y = x
SameSize(y, x)
= Intro
= Elim: 3, 2
= Elim: 1, 4
22. Analytical Consequence in Fitch
This is something like a rule, but is based on “common
sense” and external knowledge. E.g.
Cube(a)
SameShape(a, b)
Cube(b)
=Ana Con
(“because we know what Cube means”)
Can be used to prove anything as long as we believe in our rules. It’s okay.
23. Proving Nonconsequence
E.g.
Are all binary operations associative?
Addition is, multiplication is, even with matrices or
complex number
1. op(a, b) = x
2. op(b, c) = y
?. op(a, y) = op(x, c)
24. Proving Nonconsequence
E.g.
Are all binary operations associative?
Addition is, multiplication is, even with matrices or
complex number
1. op(a, b) = x
2. op(b, c) = y
?. op(a, y) = op(x, c)
No!!!
Take binary trees. Take terms (from Chapter 1)
