comment Find the number of premises required for a proof of the following wff $(A\to(B\to(C\to D)))$
As far as what premise means, it's not defined in the question. In the text book it appears that a premise is anything which we assume to be true. The text is Discrete Structures Logic and Computability, chapter 6, by Hein.

So use the whole thing as a premise, of course! Thank you : )

I suppose so. It seemed almost like a trick question, as no context was given. The chapter was on CNF, DNF and various axioms though. Thank you for your suggestion Marc.

Thanks for the edit, I wasn't sure if posting TeX in the title worked the same way.

comment Where is my mistake in this proof? $(A \lor B) \land (A \rightarrow C) \lor (B \rightarrow D) \rightarrow (C \lor D)$
I see, yes according to the book $\land$ is done before $\lor$ which is done before $\to$. However, I can't find where in the 4th line I mixed up the order, could you elaborate?

Thanks Johannes, so it was a contingency after all! And yes, ~~~~~~ was a placeholder since I didn't know how to put it in a nice, separated format. As for the priority, that's exactly how the problem is formatted, and I just followed the order of operations, did I miss something?
