A level Mathematical Logic Quiz 1

15 Questions

Quiz Description

 In this quiz, A level logic quiz, we will basically be talking about what logic is all about, the definition, what tautology and contradiction in mathematical logic is all about as this quiz with 15 questions has been solely set on the tautology and contradiction of mathematical statements. 

Mathematical logic is the application of mathematical techniques to logic. Tautology is a situation whereby the truth values on the last column of a truth table are all true and a contradiction is the reverse of a tautology as in all the truth values in the last column of the truth table are all false.
