The End

So after the final is finished, I believe this is the time for signing off this blog post and conclude the course. Through this course we are introduced certain topics with respect to logic and reasoning that may help us in the future.

Since the final exam is being taken as an overview of the course, there are certain things on the final I wanted to address. Most of the course contents are present in the final exam except the halting problem part at the end of the course. I believe almost one and a half lecture dedicated to something should appear on the final, even if it's a simple short answer question that serves as testing the understanding of the material. However, most other major parts of the final are representative of the course. The cell function makes an appearance which we've mostly didn't cover of the course which is just the reverse of the floor function. Venn diagram with 3 elements is something that didn't get explored in the assignment or quiz but it's not a far fetched topic. Most proofs in the final is reasonable with delta epsilon proof missing which I believe should be the case taken this course is not strictly a Math course where we've had practice in the assignment.

Overall, I believe this course serves as a good introduction to the topic while not being overly demanding for students that is a good example of how 100-level course should be done.

This will be the last post of the blog/slog and it's a pleasure to take this course.

Clarification

After the midterm and assignment, I feel like those exercises help me to nail down the exact intention of this course. Now, I have to think logically before I say anything or write down anything because anything that is logically incorrect is not acceptable in this course. A lot of proof featured in this course is also about challenging something we take for granted and forces a rigorous proof upon it.

This course tries to integrate simple python program into the curriculum making taking this course along with other CSC courses a more coherent experience. By doing this, I practice the logical thinking process when I am faced with python programs in other courses.

Not only does this course reinforces concepts in CSC courses, MAT courses are also practiced in this course which definition and proof of limit is presented. However, I think some people may not be mathematically comfortable with seeing such large amount of mathematical proof first, including me. For now, I will review some fundamental mathematical concepts and try to think logically why they are the way they are.

First Post

This will be first post of the blog so this might be short as I don't have full taste of the course now.

I have a feeling this course is vastly different to other courses I have taken where critical thinking will be a major factor for determining understanding materials in this course. This course forces students to think logically about each sentence and statement for better understanding of each other. Language is an important part of human life that all communication is based upon, including this blog post right now. I hope this course will enable me as a better communicator and think logically in the future.
