    Section 11 applies this symbolism to two variables. Thus the following notations: ⊃ x , ⊃ y , ⊃ x, y could all appear in a single formula. Section 12 reintroduces the notion of "matrix" (contemporary truth table ), the notion of logical types, and in particular the notions of first-order and second-order functions and propositions.

    Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory is the queen of mathematics." Number theory also studies the natural, or whole, numbers.
