An equation doesn't say that two open sentences are equal. Rather, the open sentence is itself (in some cases) an equation. -- Toby 11:54 19 May 2003 (UTC)
I doubt you can find me a mathematician who uses the term "open sentence". I think it's part of the "new math" of the '60s. Good riddance. Michael Hardy 19:38 23 May 2003 (UTC)
Somewhere on my plans for the future is to write Predicate; I'll work these together somehow then. -- Toby Bartels 06:05 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)
the explanation ought not to limit itself to polynomial equations; the classical examples from logic aren't numerical in nature, and i think today databases are a more obvious application of predicates that deserves to be mentioned as well
Why was Predicate (logic) redirected here? -Chira 02:50, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
- I was also puzzled by the fact that very few other wikipedias have a word for this concept. --Renier Maritz (talk) 11:18, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
