1. Introduction to Mathematical Logic

Mathematical logic is a crucial field that addresses the science of reasoning and verification of statements. It encompasses propositional logic, which serves as the foundation for various logical operators such as conjunction, disjunction, and negation. The study of logical implications and their interpretations is vital in numerous applications including program verification and artificial intelligence.
