Week 3

On this week, we continued to see about the language of math. We learned about conjunctions and disjunctions, negations and truth table. We also saw some laws in the world of math, for example the Morgan's Law, commutative, associative, and others. I found the truth table a very important subject, that requires more focus than the habitual in my studies, also the manipulative laws should be another subject with more focus. In our tutorial, we revised some predicate problems, which I found very challenging.

Week 2

In our second week, we got to know about quantifiers, the difference about sentence and statement, predicates, implications and equivalence. I was a little bit confused about the difference between sentence and statement, and the everyday language transformed in implications, so I believe that I need to focus my studies on this two concepts. On this week tutorial, our first, we had the content of the first week covered, python programs with sets and Venns Diagrams. On the end of tutorial, we had a quizz about venns diagrams, and I believe that I left the tutorial with my doubts about this subject clarified.

Week 1

In my first week of classes I got to know a little better what the course was about, which areas of computer science utilize this knowledge, and also how this course will benefit myself in another courses, like Statics and Linear Algebra. I liked the material of the professor, he made use of some resources to gather the attention from the students, and fulfilled his purpose of teaching us the begging about the course. We did not have tutorials this week.
