    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_fallacy

    In mathematics, certain kinds of mistaken proof are often exhibited, and sometimes collected, as illustrations of a concept called mathematical fallacy.There is a distinction between a simple mistake and a mathematical fallacy in a proof, in that a mistake in a proof leads to an invalid proof while in the best-known examples of mathematical fallacies there is some element of concealment or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_table

    A trace table is a technique used to test algorithms in order to make sure that no logical errors occur while the calculations are being processed. The table usually takes the form of a multi-column, multi-row table; With each column showing a variable , and each row showing each number input into the algorithm and the subsequent values of the ...

    Each logic operator can be used in an assertion about variables and operations, showing a basic rule of inference. Examples: The column-14 operator (OR), shows Addition rule : when p =T (the hypothesis selects the first two lines of the table), we see (at column-14) that p ∨ q =T.

  7. Proof by contradiction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_contradiction

    In logic, proof by contradiction is a form of proof that establishes the truth or the validity of a proposition by showing that assuming the proposition to be false leads to a contradiction. Although it is quite freely used in mathematical proofs, not every school of mathematical thought accepts this kind of nonconstructive proof as universally ...
