SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding resources for practicing logic problems, specifically those involving constraints between variables. A user seeks problems similar to defining constraints where if either variable x or y equals 1, then variable v must also equal 1. Recommendations include puzzle books by Raymond Smullyan and links to Amazon listings for further exploration of logic puzzles.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of logical constraints and variables
  • Familiarity with basic logic problem-solving techniques
  • Knowledge of mathematical notation and implications
  • Interest in puzzle-solving and logical reasoning
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore puzzle books by Raymond Smullyan for advanced logic problems
  • Research online platforms offering logic puzzles and solutions
  • Practice defining and solving constraints in logic problems
  • Join forums or communities focused on logic problem discussions
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for students, educators, and puzzle enthusiasts looking to enhance their logical reasoning skills through structured problem-solving exercises.

I would like to practice logic thinking more. The sort of problems I'm talking about are like this:

Define two constraints, which relates the variables x and y to v such that if either x or y is 1 then v is forced to be 1.

Where the answer is then:
x ≤ v
y ≤ v

Does anybody know where I can find similar problems? Along with the answers to test and see if I solved correctly? Thanks!

How do these constraints imply that if either x or y is 1 then v is 1? Let x = 1, y = 0. Both constraints are satisfied if v = 3.
