ExistsQuantifiedFormula

public ExistsQuantifiedFormula(RelationalFormula folFormula,
                               Set<net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.Variable> variables)

Creates a new exists-quantified formula with the given formula and variables.

Parameters:

folFormula - the formula this for-all-quantified formula ranges over.

variables - the variables of this for-all-quantified formula.

ExistsQuantifiedFormula

public ExistsQuantifiedFormula(FolFormula folFormula,
                               net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.Variable variable)

Creates a new exists-quantified formula with the given formula and variable.

Parameters:

folFormula - the formula this for-all-quantified formula ranges over.

Method Detail

substitute

public ExistsQuantifiedFormula substitute(net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.interfaces.Term<?> v,
                                          net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.interfaces.Term<?> t)
                                   throws IllegalArgumentException

Description copied from class: RelationalFormula

Substitutes all occurrences of term "v" in this formula by term "t" and returns the new formula. NOTE: if "v" is a variable and bound to a quantifier then "v" is not substituted in that quantifiers inner formula.

Specified by:

substitute in interface net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.interfaces.ComplexLogicalFormula

Specified by:

substitute in class FolFormula

Parameters:

v - the term to be substituted.

t - the term to substitute.

Returns:

a formula where every occurrence of "v" is replaced by "t".

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if "v" and "t" are of different sorts (NOTE: this exception is only thrown when "v" actually appears in this formula).

toNnf

public FolFormula toNnf()

Description copied from class: FolFormula

Makes the negation normal form of this formula.

Specified by:

toNnf in class FolFormula

Returns:

the NNF of this formula

collapseAssociativeFormulas

public FolFormula collapseAssociativeFormulas()

Description copied from class: FolFormula

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 FolFormula

Returns:

the collapsed formula.

toString

public String toString()

Specified by:

toString in class RelationalFormula

clone

public ExistsQuantifiedFormula clone()

Specified by:

clone in interface net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.interfaces.ComplexLogicalFormula

Specified by:

clone in interface net.sf.tweety.logics.commons.syntax.interfaces.SimpleLogicalFormula

Specified by:

clone in class FolFormula
