How to submit the 3rd home assignment
- For the first part, you should derive the clausal form
step by step and give a resolution proof. You should also
indicate the most general unifiers and the renaming of variables
in each step of the proof. This part is to be done by hand.
- For the second part, submit the input file for OTTER
together with explanations for sentences therein. In addtition to
this, attach some proofs (including queries) that you can find
using OTTER. Give also a query for which OTTER does not find a
proof (in this case, OTTER loops for ever or announces that "sos
is empty" and stops). This is to ensure the consistency of your
sentences.
- It is strongly recommended that your submission
does not exceed 10 pages.
- The deadline is the 7th of December, 1998.
OTTER is available in the machines named as "alpha", "beta", "gamma"
and so on. The command "use otter" updates the path variables of your
shell so that otter becomes available.
