Predicate Logic

/in /by

Represent the following statements as formulas of Predicate Calculus, stating the
intended interpretation of any predicates and constants that you use. You should
give two versions of each formula, one using the existential quantifier and one
using the universal quantifier .
i. Someone who writes novels is a novelist.
ii. All novels are books.
iii. All novelists, poets and journalists are writers.
iv. Poets are not the only writers.
v. Some novelists are American and some are Indian.
vi. Not all writers are American or Indian.

Encode the following facts as Prolog clauses. NB you may need to code more than
one clause for each numbered sentence. You should keep the queries (i-v) below in
mind when deciding how to structure your clauses.
1. Olga Tokarczuk is Polish and wrote the novel Flights.
2. Martha Gellhorn was an American novelist and journalist.
3. Sylvia Plath was American and wrote a poem called Ariel.
4. Arundhati Roy is an Indian activist and novelist.
5. George Eliot was British and wrote the novel Middlemarch.
Use your Prolog implementation to derive answers to the following queries, based on the
information given in 15 above. You may need to encode some of your answers to Question
2(c) and/or other reasonable general statements as Prolog clauses, in addition to your
encodings of 1-5 above. Explain your results.
i. Give the name of a British writer.
ii. Is Tokarczuk a novelist?

A project needs to be a single narrative not broken into chapters like a thesis.  The easiest way to organize it is probably chronological. 

My argument, In the early twentieth century, high rates of black incarceration resulted from convictions from property crimes.  In the later twentieth century, high rates of black incarceration resulted from convictions for drug offenses.  While the official cause changed, high rates of black incarceration continued through the time period in Mississippi and Louisiana.
Points clearly and concisely made, it cannot be repetitive at all,

It has to be in chronological order, I am submitting a former draft to reference from as far as the info on Louisiana and Mississippi, please use info from draft and sources because I have to use some info from the first draft as long as its worthy. outside of the earlier times this needs to focus on black incarceration resulted from convictions for drug offenses.
your primary focus might be on why did Mississippi and Louisiana criminalize narcotics?  Or, how did Mississippi and Louisiana drug laws cause mass incarceration?
Websites are not an acceptable source

Project

A 25 to 30 page research paper (not including notes, graph-
ics, appendices, etc.) notes and graphs are needed
Can include alternative formats, such as a museum-quality
exhibit or documentary film.
Possible topics include analyzing a historiographical debate
or placing a smaller, local event in a larger historical context.
Relies more on secondary and less on primary sources. Must have footnotes as well.

I have to show where I stand on this argument and that is I do not agree with the amount of blacks that are incarcerated on drug charges in the two states. I think that it is unjust when compared to other races mostly whites. The sentencing is way too harsh.

FOLLOW THE OUTLINE!!! PLEASE FOLLOW OUTLINE!! Please do not pile a bunch of words together I am going to comb thru the paper with a fine tooth lol 

I will also send a pdf of a book I want used as well.
