Logic in computer science compelling analysis of what can be called a mechanical procedure and Kurt Gödel asserted that he found Turing's analysis "perfect." In addition some other major areas of theoretical overlap between logic and computer science are: One of the first applications to use the term Artificial Intelligence was the Logic Theorist system developed by Allen Newell, J.C. Shaw, and Herbert Simon in 1956. One of the things that a logician does is to take a set of statements in logic and deduce the conclusions (additional statements) that must be true by the laws of logic. For example, If given a logical
Is Logic Empirical? the microscopic world. In this view, classical logic was merely a limiting case of this new logic. If this were the case, then our "preconceived" Boolean logic would have to be rejected by empirical evidence in the same way Euclidean geometry (taken as the correct geometry of physical space) was rejected on the basis of (the facts supporting the theory of) general relativity. This argument is in favour of the view that the rules of logic are empirical. That logic came to be known as quantum logic. There are, however, few philosophers today who regard this logic as a replacement
