Week 4

During the fourth week of the course, I have continued working on my assignment and clarified my concerns with Professor Heap. This week has been a great learning experience for me because I am finally starting to understand my errors in the assignment. Towards the end of the week, I have fixed these errors and provided appropriate explanation. In the end, I have managed to finish the assignment with my group partner and submitted it on time.

During this week, we also learnt about proofs and how they can be proved. We went over the step by step procedure on how to appropriately structure the proof with explanations. We also learnt how different laws can be used to prove a statement and provide explanations. In addition to this, we have learnt about Implications and how a statement can be represented with mixed quantifiers. Hence, by the end of this week, I am now able to differentiate between statements that use the existential quantifiers and statements that use the mixed quantifiers. One aspect of the course content however, that was difficult to understand was limits. Although Professor Heap was able to explain it thoroughly, the notation that he used was confusing. I hope to fix my understanding this weekend in order to prepare me for next week's mid-term exam.
