Welcome to Week 1! This week, you will start your learning journey in the exciting world of logic. You will learn what a proposition is and how you can use propositional logic to describe real-world situations to help you solve problems. You will also learn how to describe logic expressions in a tabular format. Once you have understood the foundations of propositional logic and learnt how to write propositions, you will learn how you can combine them together to describe more complicated scenarios.
