Anyone taken a logic philosophy class?
I signed up for logic philosophy because the general philosophy class was full, and I need a Phil. class to meet my requirements. I read the description of the class and still couldn't get a grasp on what the class will be about. If you've taken one of these classes, or know what logic philosophy is, can you help me out so I don't start next semester totally blind in this class.

It may seem weird but logic classes feel a lot like algebra classes. This is because they use symbols to represent logical elements like "and", "or", "not", etc... Then they string these logical elements together to make statements that are either always true, sometimes true, or always false, or whatever. So it kind of feels like you are in a combination of algebra (all the symbols), geometry (doing proofs) and debate class (making logical arguments).
If you can get over the weirdness thing, it can be really interesting and can help you with reasoning things out, and if you enjoy it you should consider going into computer programming, because that's all programming is. But it really feels archaic some times, like you're reading hieroglyphics or something.
Good luck.
My college does not grant it. I in basic terms took a Philosophy of religion type, I have been given an A-. It develop into an ok type - i chanced on Taoism and Buddhism the finest i think of. Islam a much off 0.33. that's a mundane college by making use of how.
