Derives program properties based on the operational semantics of a language. Rhetorically, thesis statements are important because they clarify for the reader the controlling idea of the paper. Without a clear thesis, the reader may lose patience because he/she doesn’t see the point. . The assertion at the end of the sequence is called the . conclusion. , and the preceding statements are called . premises. . . To have confidence in the conclusion that you draw from an argument, you must be sure that the premises are acceptable on their own merits or follow from other statements that are known to be true.. Learning Objectives. Know the three basic logic gate operators . Work out the output of given inputs using a truth table. All the instructions and data inside a computer are stored using binary. .
