Hi Wenyi, Jordon and Ricky, You have put forward the content very lucidly and in a concise manner which i really liked. I liked how you tried to put forward the boolean functions in predicates with the Star Wars example. However, I would’ve probably gone for a more general example to cater to non sci-fi audience as well. :) I really enjoyed the ‘everybody likes somebody’ and ‘there is someone that everyone likes’. This is a point of confusion for many and you have neatly explained it. I did understand all the terminologies and definitions involved with Predicate Calculus but would’ve liked to see how it fits into the big picture (in the context of AI). How and where could I apply predicate calculus and how does it compare with the other methods like propositional calculus. Overall I really enjoyed the read. It was simple, had a good flow and was explained well. Kuddos to the collaborators for solely coming up with this article! Thanks and warm regards, Ritika

Thank you for the feedback! The Star Wars references were just a way to make the writing fun; I figured I'd have to change them, so no worries. Hopefully I've addressed your other points in the first part of the content section, describing some shortcomings of propositional logic and mentioning how predicate logic is used in logic programming to allow automated reasoning.
