Document Summary

Lecture 3 remarks learn the whole lecture thoroughly. Pipelining remark distinguish between the ability of the pipeline to _accept_ "n" ops/cycle and the ability of the supplier of the pipeline to _provide_ "n" ops/cycle. Then one digit of the register representation corresponds to each quantity. But suppose the 8-bit register encodes one 3-bit quantity and one 5-bit quantity. We can still give a hexadecimal representation of the register, but digits no longer correspond to quantities. Lecture 4 remarks: connective syntax most people write binary (sentential) connectives in _infix_ fashion, i. e. they put the connective between its two arguments. Thus, p \/ q or (p --> q) \/ (r + s) We connect simple variables or more complex formulas. Of course, we could write in _prefix_ fashion, although this would confus most people. \/pq or \/ (p --> q) (r + s) But logicians always write ternary (indeed, n-ary) connectives in prefix fashion. (could it be otherwise?).
