First Order Logic

First-order logic is a type of Predicate Logic in which predicates take only individuals as arguments and quantifiers only bind individual variables.

First-order logic is distinguished from propositional logic by its use of quantifiers; each interpretation of first-order logic includes a domain of discourse over which the quantifiers range. Briefly, first-order logic is distinguished from higher-order logics in that quantification is allowed only over atomic entities (individuals but not sets).
