{ ( 1 , 2 ) , ( 2 , 3 ) , ( 1 , 3 ) } {“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”\{(1, 2), (2, 3), (1, 3)\}”}

e , b , d , a , c {“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”e, b, d, a, c”}

p → q {“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”p \to q”}

{ ( 1 , 1 ) , ( 1 , 3 ) , ( 2 , 2 ) , ( 3 , 1 ) , ( 3 , 3 ) } {“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”\{(1, 1), (1, 3), (2, 2), (3, 1), (3, 3)\}”}

p ∧ q {“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”p \wedge q”}
