Week 3

 I don’t have any questions initially about logic- it's all, for lack of a better word, logical.  

p, q, and r are all visually distinct letters that can be easily told apart at a glance, and are all next to each other sequentially in the alphabet, which makes them easy picks.  


Sentences that are not statements are questions (“Is Jurassic Park a good movie?”,) commands (“Go watch Jurassic Park!”,) and opinions (“Jurassic Park is a cinematic masterpiece.”)  


A statement that is both true and false is a paradox (which is sort of inherently a paradox in and of itself, given that a paradox is both true and false,) but because a paradox inherently somehow contradicts itself in one way or another it either cannot be true or cannot be false.  


Statement: “Most theropod dinosaurs had feathers.” 

Symbolic: p= “Most theropod dinosaurs had feathers.” 

Negation: “No theropod dinosaurs had feathers,” or alternatively “All theropod dinosaurs had feathers.”
