This page belongs to resource collections on Logic and Inquiry.

A boolean-valued function is a function of the type \(f : X \to \mathbb{B},\) where \(X\!\) is an arbitrary set and where \(\mathbb{B}\) is a boolean domain.

In the formal sciencesmathematics, mathematical logic, statistics — and their applied disciplines, a boolean-valued function may also be referred to as a characteristic function, indicator function, predicate, or proposition. In all of these uses it is understood that the various terms refer to a mathematical object and not the corresponding semiotic sign or syntactic expression.

In formal semantic theories of truth, a truth predicate is a predicate on the sentences of a formal language, interpreted for logic, that formalizes the intuitive concept that is normally expressed by saying that a sentence is true. A truth predicate may have additional domains beyond the formal language domain, if that is what is required to determine a final truth value.

Examples

A binary sequence is a boolean-valued function \(f : \mathbb{N}^+ \to \mathbb{B}\), where \(\mathbb{N}^+ = \{ 1, 2, 3, \ldots \},\). In other words, \(f\!\) is an infinite sequence of 0's and 1's.

A binary sequence of length \(k\!\) is a boolean-valued function \(f : [k] \to \mathbb{B}\), where \([k] = \{ 1, 2, \ldots k \}.\)
