Notation Table

Polish- or Łukasiewicz's notation for logic

  • The table below shows the core of w:Jan Łukasiewicz's notation for w:sentential logic, or Propositional Logic. The "conventional" notation did not become so until the 1970s and 80s. Some letters in the Polish notation table means a certain word in Polish, as shown:
ConceptConventional

w:Sheffer strokeDφψSheffer stroke

  • Note that the quantifiers ranged over propositional values in Łukasiewicz's work on many-valued logics.
