Power Logic 

C.Second Edition
This is actually third edition of my logic class,in this edition, I made a big change. 
1¡£ Basic idea: 
I even change the whole 
design of Logic class from "Bool" value to "Logic State"==1:Positive; 0:Possible; -1: Negative. Because in my 
mind, as for an unknown logic object, its state is always unknown or "Possible". We can only use known logic 
object of which the logic state is either "Positive" or "Negative" to deduct all unknown logic object. Of course
during deduction, if you find out you are attempting to change an known logic object from one state(Positive 
or Negative) to its opposite state, we reach an contradiction. I basically define 4 logic operation, but the 
4th one "Conditional" is actually able to be expressed by the other three---"AND", "OR", "NOT".
	I stubbornly try to avoid to write a "parser" which is possibly beyond my ability, energy. So, I use a 
similar method to record each step of logic calculation of a rule(or a logic expression involving several logic
objects connected by logic operators). It is a stack of a record---OpRec which is containing a status flag
indicating whether it is an operand, operator or a result, a pointer in case operand or result, or simply an 
operator flag if it is an operator. In order to save space, I use an union to represent "operator" and "operand".
(It doesn't matter, nobody cares about it. I mean space.)
	The most important part is that I implement a series of judgement function according to different operators.
For example, for "AND" operator, if either of the two operand is false, and the result is true, you definitely reach 
a conclusion that they are contradictive. If the result is true, only one possible solution is that both operands
are true. This is called "deduction". So simple it is.
2¡£ Program design: In Logic class, there is one static object of Analyse class objects which fulfill analysing
function. In this Analyse object there is a stack to contain array of record---*OpRec--in this record, I record
each logic objects, operators, even including the temperatory logic objects. For example, ~R|W I have to record
"R" as first operand, "! " as operator, "~R" as result; "~R" as first operand for second step, "|" as operator,
"W" as operand, "~R|W" as result. So, you see I actually like using stack to do some similar job of parsing.
3¡£ Major function£º
     A. bool Analyse::readStack(int index)
	Major function getting info from stack of Analyse class, judging the operator then call appropriate analsing function.
	result means if there is new discovery or deductions, like find a new value for any step of logic objects.
     B. void Analyse::analysing()
	Keep finding the "result" type in OpRec(the stack) and call "readStack", doing the analysing. Have to clear stack for 
	next expression checking.
	C. 	bool Analyse::analyAnd(Logic* op1, Logic* op2, Logic* result)
		bool Analyse::analyNot(Logic* op1, Logic* result)
		bool Analyse::analyOr(Logic* op1, Logic* op2, Logic* result)
		bool Analyse::analyConditional(Logic* op1, Logic* op2, Logic* result)
	These functions actually do the deduction job, given the state of result, there is certain chance you can get the state
	of certain operand under certain operator. For example: "OR" operator will only give a "Negative" result when two operand
	are both "Negative". That's the idea.
	D. void Logic::pushStack(const Logic* self, const Logic* pDummy, LogicOp opCode)
		This function will put the pointer of each operand, operator, result which is in array of "temp" into Analyse's 
		stack.
	E. LogicState Logic::And(LogicState self, LogicState dummy)
	This is logic "AND"! Have you found out? Say, true=1, false = -1 then result = true "AND"  false = (-1*1)
	There is only one exception: -1*(-1) = 1, so, I only have to judge when two operands are same. In this case, the result is
	same as any of operand.(true&&true=true; false&&false = false) Even Possible is included by the rule as 1*0=0(Possible with 
	any other state is still possible.)
	F. LogicState Logic::And(LogicState self, LogicState dummy)
	This is logic "OR".  The result is always the bigger one among two operands. Right? (say true||false= true, even Possible
	which is 0 also falls within the rule.)
	G. LogicState Logic::Not(LogicState self)
	This is logic "NOT". Whenever the operand is, just times -1. (!true = false)¡¡
	H. void setFacts();     void setFactStr()
	These two global function does initialization job to set the Logic objects with initial Logic state and name expression.
	I. Logic& (* checkLists[10])() = {check1, check2, check3, check4, check5, check6,	check7, check8, check9, check10};
	This is a function array which initialize to 10 checking functions each of which is a logic expression with Logic objects
	in the logic list of "element[ElementNum]" and connected by logic operators. The return value is actually the final result
	Logic objects which is stored in the internal list "temp" along all other transpositional results. And this last result
	itself is the so-called "RULE" which should be true. and I set up its state to be Positive before deduction in 
		void Analyse::analysing()
	
4¡£ Further improvement£º
	A. I always want to write those global function to make them part of class function. But it is not a easy 
	job.
	B.
	

D. The problem:

    R: "It is raining."

    S: "It is snowing."

    I: "I get ill."

    W: "I get wet."

    D: "I need a doctor."

    H: "It is hot."

    F: "I have a fevor."

    Now I give you some facts which can be regarded as a collection of rules:

    1) ~R|W      (R->W)   If it is raining, then I get wet.

    2)  R|W      (~R->S)  If it is not raining, then it is snowing.

    3)  ~R|~S    (R->~S)   If it is raining, then it is not snowing.

    4)  ~S|~H     (S->~H)  If it is snowing, then it is not hot.

    5)  ~W|H|I    (  W->(H|I)   )  If it is wet, then it is either hot or I get ill.

    6)  ~I|~F|D   (I-> (~F|D) )  If I get ill, then I either don't have a fever or need a doctor.

    7)  F|~D      (  ~F->~D )  If I do not have a fever, then I don't need a doctor. 

    8)  ~S|~H     (  S->~H   ) If it is snowing, then it is not hot.

    9)  ~I|H|D    (  I->(H|D)  ) If I get ill then it is either hot or I need a doctor.

    10) H|~I|~W|F  ( (I&&W)->(H|F)) If I get both wet and ill then it is either hot 

                                or I have a fever.

    Suppose we have following facts:

    1)  R    2)~H

    Can we make conclusion that D?

    or in other words that suppose "it is raining" and "it is not hot", can we conclude that 

    "I need  a doctor"?

    The answer is YES! And the program outcome proves that.

E. The problem of last edition:

    The answer of last edition for same question is different from now! Because in last edition,

the condition of no. 9 is missing Logic "D". I found out this omission when testing.
