[Reconstructing Descartes] Around the turn of the last centuries, logicians and mathematicians have tried to redefine everything using only set theory in the pursuit of eliminating all statements that are not verifiable in science (the technical term is called "falsifiability"). Read p.10 together about how Kuratowski defined ordered pairs using only set notations. Discuss and convince each other how it works, and what properties of set theory were used to create ordered pairs from a set which does not have the concept of "order" built in, e.g. {1,2,3} = (1,3,2} = {3,2,1} = {3,3,1,1,2}. Together, device new examples with non-mathematical set elements to show how you could "create order from disorder". Summarize your explanation into a paragraph in point-form with 4 or 5 sentences (the number of sentences equal the number of your group member).

1. If there is such a thing as an empty set, which contains nothing, can there be a “full set” that contains everything? (Y/N) 2. In a bivalent logical system, can a proposition have more than two truth values? (Y/N)
In the following problems ((f) - (j)) you are given the description of a set. Your task is to write down the set in the formal language of set theory by specifying the membership condition of the set. There are many possible answers here, but make sure that the condition you specify actually determines which elements belong to that set. (h) Assume the numbers in this set are natural numbers N. {0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, . . . } (i) Ecin U (j) The intersection of Ecin U and F.

Let K (x, y) be the statement "x knows y", where the universe of discourse for both x and y is the set of all people. (Assume it is possible for x to know y while y does not know x, and hence K(x, y) and K(y,x) are different statements.) Translate the sentence "there are two distinct persons who know each other, and no one else" into First Order Logic. 2.
Make it more curious and engaging " Make this below paragraph more engaging and curious with proper grammar, please.Don't make it too long.. at most 1000 characters."Imagine a world where fire blazed and ice melted, their inner workings a baffling mystery. Then came Rudolf Clausius, a scientific visionary who dared to challenge the notion of a perfectly ordered universe. He introduced the concept of entropy – a measure of the hidden chaos constantly increasing within all systems. His breakthrough was a spark. Building on this foundation, Josiah Gibbs unveiled "free energy" – the untapped potential to do work, like the hidden power within a battery, waiting to be harnessed. Meanwhile, Ludwig Boltzmann, delving into the heart of entropy, exposed the universe's unsettling truth: it favors disorder. He connected this chaos to probability, revealing that the more disorganized a system becomes, the more likely it is to remain that way. "
