How to use Ruzsa

Entering sentences

Enter the first sentence in the input:

Press Enter, and Ruzsa will check if the sentence is syntactically correct:

Once you enter a correct sentence, it will turn into a node of the tree representing the analytic tableau:

Next, you can add further sentences with the Add button:

On smaller desktops and mobile devices, you can find the Add button in the top toolbar:

New sentences are added as leaves to the tree:

Breaking down sentences

If you hover your cursor over (or on touchscreen devices, long tap) a sentence, the breakdown menu will appear:

Select the breakdown rule you want to use, and enter the derived sentences:

Breaking down A or B

When you're ready, click on the Check Step button, and Ruzsa will check if your breakdown step is correct.

If the step is correct, the breakdown's color will change from grey to black, and the broken-down sentence will be marked with strikethrough:

The complete set of breakdown rules is described in detail on the Method of analytic tableaux Wikipedia page. The first-order rules of Ruzsa are the ones contained in the First-order tableau without unification subsection. Closure is denoted by * derived from the lower closing node:
