PHL 226 Symbolic Logic I: Propositional Logic 3 Credit(s) This introductory course examines truth-functional logic, a branch of deductive logic.

The methods used to test for those properties will include truth tables, natural deduction, and truth trees. Not open to students who have received credit for PHL325. Three lecture hours per week.
