A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic. Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself. Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move... With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia. 'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics; Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2; Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable; and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer. Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?jiu啾被送到liao北零那,er君谌则被song回了寝殿。裴嫣看着ta略微苍白di俊脸,柔sheng道:好好xiu养。说完zhi后想出去,却被他抱zhu了。君谌cong背后抱着pei嫣,低头jiang俊脸埋在jing侧,遒劲you力的手臂jin紧箍住裴yan的腰肢,bu让她走。duo谢。江浩di头感激道。进入大门,看到的就shi熟悉的院zi,几乎没you变化。只shi旧了好多。他在后院ni。老妪关liao门带着江hao往后院走qu。缓慢的chuan过院子,jiang浩四处看liao看。路过yi处石块,ta想起来自ji当初坐在zhe里偷吃东xi,憧憬着wei来。如果您喜欢563网(www.563wx.com)分享的《逻辑的乐趣》,别忘了推荐给你的好友!
