Survey of Animated Logical Graphs • 1

Posted on May 10, 2015 by Jon Awbrey

This is one of several Survey posts I’ll be drafting from time to time, starting with minimal stubs and collecting links to the better variations on persistent themes I’ve worked on over the years.  After that I’ll look to organizing … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Jim Willgoose At root we are dealing with a genre of very abstract formal systems.  They have grammars that determine their well-formed expressions and rules that determine the permissible transformations among expressions, but they lack … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • HP A computational problem is defined as a set of problem instances with specified properties.  An algorithm solves a problem if it computes the correct answer to every problem instance in that set. The use … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Helmut Raulien It’s fair to say most of my university coursework leaned to the theoretical side but I did cobble together a respectable enough background in computing, statistics, and industrial-organizational styles of systems and simulation that … Continue reading →
