Paradoxes and Logic (Part 1)
Logic in Practice and Theory Computer programs consist of algorithms. Algorithms are instructions on how and in what order an input is to be processed. Algorithms are nothing more than applied logic and a programmer is a practising logician. But logic is a broad field. In a very narrow sense, logic is a part of mathematics; in a broad sense, logic is everything that has to do with thinking. These two poles show a clear contrast: The logic of mathematics is closed and well-defined, whereas the logic of thought tends to elude precise observation: How do I come to a
