View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
Peter Bruce Andrews (November 1, 1937 – April 21, 2025)[6] was an American mathematical logician. He is the creator of the mathematical logic Q0. He also received a patent on bandage for critical wounds.[7]
Key Information
Theorem Proving System
[edit]His research group designed the TPS,[8] an automated theorem proving system for first-order and higher-order logic. A subsystem ETPS of TPS is used to help students learn logic by interactively constructing natural deduction proofs. Source code of TPS is available on the Internet Archive.[9]
