In this lesson, you will leam about specific steps you can take to secure your computer system and your data from a variety of threats. You might be surprised to learn that computer security is not primarily a technical issue, and is not necessarily expensive. For the most part, keeping your system and data secure is a matter of common sense. | The Foundations: Logic and Proofs Chapter 1, Part I: Propositional Logic With Question/Answer Animations Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education.

Examples of propositions: The Moon is made of green cheese. Trenton is the capital of New Jersey. Toronto is the capital of Canada. 1 + 0 = 1 0 + 0 = 2 Examples that are not propositions. Sit down! What time is it? x + 1 = 2 x + y = z Propositional Logic Constructing Propositions Propositional Variables: p, q, r, s, The proposition that is always true is denoted by T and the proposition that is always false is denoted by F. Compound Propositions; constructed from logical connectives and other propositions Negation ¬ Conjunction ∧ Disjunction ∨ Implication → Biconditional ↔ Compound Propositions: Negation The negation of a proposition p is denoted by ¬p and has this truth table: Example: If p denotes “The earth is round.”, then ¬p denotes “It is not the case that the earth is round,” or more simply “The earth is not round.” p ¬p T F F T Conjunction The conjunction of propositions p and q is denoted by p ∧ q and has this truth table: Example: If p denotes “I am . | The Foundations: Logic and Proofs Chapter 1, Part I: Propositional Logic With Question/Answer Animations Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education.
