Tarski's World
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Tarski's World allows one to construct a world of geometric shapes and then enter sentences about this world. These sentences are tested for correct syntax, for proper use of labels and variables, and formally for truth. Although three dimensional shapes are used to make them more visually interesting, the world is only two dimensional. The geometric relationships among shapes, relationships such as LeftOf and BackOf, are also two dimensional. Attributes of specific shapes can also be tested
