Intermediate Translations for '&' and '>'

Agenda

1. If you don't understand anything up to and including CP rule you need to come to my office hours so I can help you. Coming for help after Spring Break will be too late since we're going to be learning even more rules...and the old ones will still be in play.
2. Any questions about the HW?
3. Intermediate translations with '&' and '>'. 
4. Proofs.

Logically Equivalent to '&'
1. The following words are all translated as '&': 

• Although
• However
• But
• Nevertheless
• Yet
• Despite
• As well as

Example:

a. I want ABS but I really want to eat DONUTS. = A&D

c. Although I understand the HOMEWORK, I didn't do well on the TEST.

d. Despite getting his MACROS right Bob couldn't make any GAINS.

e. She works hard for the MONEY but he never treats her RIGHT. 

2. Fancy stuff: Neither P nor Q= ~P&~Q

b. Although the students PROMISED they'd do it they neither brought me COOKIES nor DONUTS. 

c. Neither MARK nor AMI will study for me however I'm a BIG boy/girl and I can STUDY by myself.

Logical Cousins with 'If'
If P then Q; Q if P = P>Q. Rule: Whatever immediately follows the 'if' comes first.
P only if Q; Only if Q, P = ~Q>~P. Rule: Whatever follows 'only if' is negated then put first, the other proposition is negated and put after the '>'.
Unless P, Q; Q unless P = ~P>Q. Rule: Whatever follows 'unless' is negated and put first. Think of 'unless' as 'if not P'.

Easy Examples
a. I'll HELP you with your logic only if you bring me COOKIES.
b. Unless you go to the CHOPPA you'll get shot.
c. Only if you give me a large COFFEE will I go to LOGIC.

Translate the Argument and Solve the Proof

A species has the capacity for EMPATHY only if it can take the PERSPECTIVE of others and unless you have a concept of SELF you can't take another's PERSPECTIVE. Therefore, if a species is capable of EMPATHY is will have a concept of SELF as well as the ability to take the PERSPECTIVE of others.

Proof

1. ~(A&B)>(C>D)
2. E>~(C>D)
3. ~F>~(~G&A)    /:. (E&~G)>F
