Constructor Detail

Conjunction

public Conjunction(java.util.Collection<? extends PropositionalFormula> formulas)

Creates a new conjunction with the given inner formulas.

Parameters:

formulas - a collection of formulas.

Conjunction

public Conjunction()

Creates a new (empty) conjunction.

Conjunction

public Conjunction(PropositionalFormula first,
                   PropositionalFormula second)

Creates a new conjunction with the two given formulae

Parameters:

first - a propositional formula.

second - a propositional formula.

Method Detail

collapseAssociativeFormulas

public PropositionalFormula collapseAssociativeFormulas()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

This method collapses all associative operations appearing in this term, e.g. every a||(b||c) becomes a||b||c.

Specified by:

collapseAssociativeFormulas in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

the collapsed formula.

toNnf

public PropositionalFormula toNnf()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

This method returns this formula in negation normal form (NNF). A formula is in NNF iff negations occur only directly in front of a proposition.

Specified by:

toNnf in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

the formula in NNF.

clone

public Conjunction clone()

Description copied from interface: SimpleLogicalFormula

Creates a deep copy of this formula

Specified by:

clone in interface SimpleLogicalFormula

Specified by:

clone in class PropositionalFormula

createEmptyFormula

public Conjunction createEmptyFormula()

Returns:

an empty version of the AssociativeFormula

getOperatorSymbol

public java.lang.String getOperatorSymbol()

Returns:

A String representing the operator which connects two items of the associative formula.

getEmptySymbol

public java.lang.String getEmptySymbol()

Returns:

A String representing an empty version of the Associative Formula implementation

toCnf

public Conjunction toCnf()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

This method returns this formula in conjunctive normal form (CNF). A formula is in CNF iff it is a conjunction of disjunctions and in NNF.

Specified by:

toCnf in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

the formula in CNF.

trim

public PropositionalFormula trim()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

Removes duplicates (identical formulas) from conjunctions and disjunctions and duplicate negations.

Specified by:

trim in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

an equivalent formula without duplicates.

getModels

public java.util.Set<PossibleWorld> getModels(PropositionalSignature sig)

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

Returns the set of models of this formula wrt. the given signature.

Specified by:

getModels in class PropositionalFormula

Parameters:

sig - some propositional signature

Returns:

the set of models of this formula wrt. the given signature.

isConjunctiveClause

public boolean isConjunctiveClause()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

Checks whether this formula is a conjunctive clause, i.e. whether it is a conjunction of literals.

Overrides:

isConjunctiveClause in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

"true" iff this formula is a conjunctive clause.

replace

public PropositionalFormula replace(Proposition p,
                                    PropositionalFormula f,
                                    int i)

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

Replaces the ith instance of the proposition p by f.

Specified by:

replace in class PropositionalFormula

Parameters:

p - some proposition

f - some formula

i - the index of the proposition

Returns:

a new formula with the ith instance of the proposition p replaced by f.
