The definition of 0 was just a simple example. I am dealing right now with Bayesian Networks. I know that DCProof isn't intended for this kind of applications,...

How can I use XOR or an equivalent function in DCProof? I could not find it. An equivalent can be written as A XOR B = [A | B ] & ~ [ A & B ] One could use...

Mike, You cannot define your own logical operators in DC Proof. You can, however, define symmetric difference -- the set theoretic equivalent of XOR. To get an...
Dan might have a different point of view in this case, but he mostly chooses to implement features corresponding to basic teaching of logic as he observes,...
Currently the Cases rule corresponds to: [P | Q] & [[P => R] & [Q => R]] => R However this can be generalised to: [P | Q] & [[P => R] & [Q => S]] => R | S And...

I will implement an XOR operator. Any suggestions for notation? I don't want to use "XOR" or "xor" because these are currently interpreted as a proposition and...
