Logic puzzle Logic puzzle A logic puzzle is a puzzle deriving from the mathematics field of deduction. The logic puzzle was first produced by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, who is better known under his pen name Lewis Carroll, the author of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". In his book "The Game of Logic" he introduced a game to solve problems such as confirming the conclusion "Some greyhounds are not fat" from the statements "No fat creatures run well" and "Some greyhounds run well". Puzzles like this, where we are given a list of premises and asked what can be deduced from them, are known
Logical connective connectives, and some of them are synonymous. Examples are: In formal languages, truth functions are represented by unambiguous symbols. These symbols are called "logical connectives", "logical operators", "propositional operators", or, in classical logic, "truth-functional connectives". See well-formed formula for the rules which allow new well-formed formulas to be constructed by joining other well-formed formulas using truth-functional connectives. Logical connectives can be used to link more than two statements, so one can speak about "-ary logical connective". Commonly used logical connectives include Alternative names for biconditional are "iff", "xnor", and "bi-implication". For example, the meaning of the statements "it is raining"
