Logic plays a fundamental role in computer science. Some of the key areas of logic that are particularly significant are computability theory (formerly called recursion theory), modal logic and category theory. The theory of computation is based on concepts defined by logicians and mathematicians such as Alonzo Church and Alan Turing.

Principles of Mathematical Logic is the 1950 [1] American translation of the 1938 second edition [2] of David Hilbert's and Wilhelm Ackermann's classic text Grundzüge der theoretischen Logik, [3] on elementary mathematical logic.
Logic programming is a programming, database and knowledge representation paradigm based on formal logic. A logic program is a set of sentences in logical form, representing knowledge about some problem domain. Computation is performed by applying logical reasoning to that knowledge, to solve problems in the domain.
A familiar example of a device with sequential logic is a television set with "channel up" and "channel down" buttons. [1] Pressing the "up" button gives the television an input telling it to switch to the next channel above the one it is currently receiving. If the television is on channel 5, pressing "up" switches it to receive channel 6.
This book is headed "On the Logic of the Moral Sciences". John Stuart Mill thought this a very important chapter for the social progress he so keenly sought. "The backward state of the Moral Sciences can only be remedied by applying to them the methods of Physical Science, duly extended and generalized".
Logic design is a step in the standard design cycle in which the functional design of an electronic circuit is converted into the representation which captures logic operations, arithmetic operations, control flow, etc. A common output of this step is RTL description. Logic design is commonly followed by the circuit design step.
