It covers key concepts such as: - Propositions are statements that can be either true or false. Compound propositions can be formed using logical connectives. - Logical connectives include conjunction (AND), disjunction (OR), and exclusive OR. Conjunction requires both propositions to be true, disjunction requires at least one to be true, and exclusive OR requires exactly one to be true. - Truth tables are used to display the relationships between the truth values of simple and compound propositions formed using logical connectives. So in summary, this chapter introduces basic concepts in mathematical logic such as pro
