| Logic & Lambda Calculus
|
| =======================
|
|
|
| The `nltk.logic` package allows expressions of First-Order Logic (FOL) to be
|
| parsed into ``Expression`` objects. In addition to FOL, the parser
|
| handles lambda-abstraction with variables of higher order.

| >>> from nltk.sem.logic import *
|
|
|
| The default inventory of logical constants is the following:
|
|
|
| >>> boolean_ops()
|
| negation -
|
| conjunction &
|
| disjunction |
|
| implication ->
|
| equivalence <->
|
| >>> equality_preds()
|
| equality =
|
| inequality !=
|
| >>> binding_ops()
|
| existential exists
|
| universal all

| lambda \

| Test for equality under alpha-conversion
|
| ========================================
|
|
|
| >>> e1 = read_expr('exists x.P(x)')
|
| >>> print(e1)
|
| exists x.P(x)
|
| >>> e2 = e1.alpha_convert(Variable('z'))
|
| >>> print(e2)

| exists z.P(z)
|
| >>> e1 == e2
|
| True

|
| >>> l = read_expr(r'\X.\X.X(X)(1)').simplify()

|
| =============
|
|
|
| >>> zero = read_expr(r'\F x.x')
|
| >>> one = read_expr(r'\F x.F(x)')
|
| >>> two = read_expr(r'\F x.F(F(x))')
|
| >>> three = read_expr(r'\F x.F(F(F(x)))')
|
| >>> four = read_expr(r'\F x.F(F(F(F(x))))')

| >>> plus = read_expr(r'\M N F x.M(F,N(F,x))')
|
| >>> mult = read_expr(r'\M N F.M(N(F))')
|
| >>> pred = read_expr(r'\N F x.(N(\G H.H(G(F)))(\u.x)(\u.u))')
|
| >>> v1 = ApplicationExpression(succ, zero).simplify()
|
| >>> v1 == one
|
| True
|
| >>> v2 = ApplicationExpression(succ, v1).simplify()
|
| >>> v2 == two
|
| True
|
| >>> v3 = ApplicationExpression(ApplicationExpression(plus, v1), v2).simplify()
|
| >>> v3 == three
|
| True
|

|
| >>> v4 == four
|
| True
|
| >>> v5 = ApplicationExpression(pred, ApplicationExpression(pred, v4)).simplify()
|
| >>> v5 == two
|
| True
|
|
|
| Overloaded operators also exist, for convenience.
|
|
|
| >>> print(succ(zero).simplify() == one)
|
| True
|
| >>> print(plus(one,two).simplify() == three)
|
| True
|
| >>> print(mult(two,two).simplify() == four)
|
| True
|
| >>> print(pred(pred(four)).simplify() == two)
|
| True
|
|
|
| >>> john = read_expr(r'john')
|
| >>> man = read_expr(r'\x.man(x)')
|
| >>> walk = read_expr(r'\x.walk(x)')
|
| >>> man(john).simplify()
|
| <ApplicationExpression man(john)>
|
| >>> print(-walk(john).simplify())
|
| -walk(john)
|
| >>> print((man(john) & walk(john)).simplify())
|
| (man(john) & walk(john))
|
| >>> print((man(john) | walk(john)).simplify())
|
| (man(john) | walk(john))
|
| >>> print((man(john) > walk(john)).simplify())
|
| (man(john) -> walk(john))
|
| >>> print((man(john) < walk(john)).simplify())
|
| (man(john) <-> walk(john))
|
|
|
| Python's built-in lambda operator can also be used with Expressions
|
|
|
| >>> john = VariableExpression(Variable('john'))
|
| >>> run_var = VariableExpression(Variable('run'))
|
| >>> run = lambda x: run_var(x)
|
| >>> run(john)
|
| <ApplicationExpression run(john)>
