Tips from 1870 | Usage: Whole, All. "The whole of the scholars went to the fair to-day." "All of the school went to the fair to-day." The sentences will be improved by transposing whole and all. "All of the scholars went to the fair to-day," not half of them. "The whole school went to the fair to-day," not a part of it. All refers to the individual scholars; whole to the school as a unit. Usage: All, Whole. The word all is often incorrectly used for the whole. "The river rose and spread over all the valley." This should be "over the whole valley." "The day being stormy, the members of Class A were all the children at school to-day." Correct by saying "were the only children at school to-day." Usage: All. This little word is used in a great many ways, some of which are quite colloquial, and in some cases provincial. When the grocer's clerk has taken your order he is prompted to say, "Is that all?" Or if he should say, "Is there anything else that you wish?" you are likely to reply, "No; that is all." Whether used in the question or in the reply, the word all should be avoided, or else the expression should be expanded so as to make a clear sentence. A friend calls to see you, and, finding you alone when he expected to meet others with you, he says, "Good morning; I see you are all alone." All is not a good equivalent for quite or entirely, either of which words would be better than all. In truth, the sentence is as clear and as strong and more concise without the use of a modifier. "I see you are alone." Source: Slips of Speech. |

After singer Milo Aukerman left the Descendents in 1987 to pursue a graduate degree in biochemistry, his three remaining bandmembers formed All, naming themselves after the Descendents' last record. Since then, the instrumental lineup of the band has remained constant: guitarist Stephen Egerton, bassist Karl Alvarez, and drummer Bill Stevenson. (Only Stevenson, formerly of Black Flag, was an original member of the Descendents.) All's first two albums, "Allroy Sez" (1988, Cruz) and "Allroy for Prez" (1988, Cruz EP) were recorded with Dave Smalley (formerly of East Coast punk bands DYS and Down By Law) singing. Scott Reynolds took over vocals until 1993, singing on the albums "Allroy's Revenge," "Allroy Saves," and "Percolater." Reynolds was replaced by Chad Price for the 1993 album "Breaking Things," their last before jumping to major label Interscope for 1995's "Pummel," which sold miserably but spawned the single "Million Bucks." The Descendents reunited in 1996 and toured through 1997, during which time Price formed the country/punk band Drag the River. All's last several albums have been released on Epitaph Records: "Mass Nerder" (1998), "Problematic" (2000), and "Live + One" (2002), which includes a live All CD and a bonus CD from the Descendents' reunion shows in 1996. The best introduction to All's work is "All," a best-of album released on Stevenson's Owned & Operated label, with remastered songs, an extensive booklet with lyrics and photos, track selection by the fans, and an otherwise unavailable song with Aukerman.Source: adapted by the editor from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia under a copyleft GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) from the article "All (band)."

In predicate logic, universal quantification is an attempt to formalise the notion that something (a logical predicate) is true for everything, or every relevant thing. The resulting statement is a universally quantified statement, and we have universally quantified over the predicate. In symbolic logic, the universal quantifier (typically "∀") is the symbol used to denote universal quantification.Quantification in general is covered in the article Quantification, while this article discusses universal quantification specifically.
Basics
Suppose you wish to say
This would seem to be a logical conjunction because of the repeated use of "and". But the "etc" can't be interpreted as a conjunction in formal logic. Instead, rephrase the statement as
- 2·0 = 0 + 0, and 2·1 = 1 + 1, and 2·2 = 2 + 2, etc.
This is a single statement using universal quantification.
- For any natural number n, 2·n = n + n.
Notice that this statement is really more precise than the original one. It may seem obvious that the phrase "etc" is meant to include all natural numbers, and nothing more, but this wasn't explicitly stated, which is essentially the reason that the phrase couldn't be interpreted formally. In the universal quantification, on the other hand, the natural numbers are mentioned explicitly.
This particular example is true, because you could put any natural number in for n and the statement "2·n = n + n" would be true. In contrast, "For any natural number n, 2·n > 2 + n" is false, because you replace n with, say, 1 and get the false statement "2·1 > 1 + 1". It doesn't matter that "2·n > 2 + n" is true for most natural numbers n; even the existence of a single counterexample is enough to prove the universal quantification false.
On the other hand, "For any composite number n, 2·n > 2 + n" is true, because none of the counterexamples are composite numbers. This indicates the importance of the domain of discourse, which specifies which values n is allowed to take. Further information on using domains of discourse with quantified statements can be found in the Quantification article. But in particular, note that if you wish to restrict the domain of discourse to consist only of those objects that satisfy a certain predicate, then for universal quantification, you do this with a logical conditional. For example, "For any composite number n, 2·n > 2 + n" is logically equivalent to "For any natural number n, if n is composite, then 2·n > 2 + n". Here the "if ... then" construction indicates the logical conditional.
In symbolic logic, we use the universal quantifier "∀" (an upside-down letter "A" in a sans-serif font) to indicate universal quantification. Thus if P(n) is the predicate "2·n > 2 + n" and N is the set of natural numbers, then
is the (false) statement
Similarly, if Q(n) is the predicate "n is composite", then
- For any natural number n, 2·n > 2 + n.
is the (true) statement
Several variations in the notation for quantification (which apply to all forms) can be found in the Quantification article. But there is a special notation used only for universal quantification, which we also give here:
- For any composite number n, 2·n > 2 + n.
The parentheses indicate universal quantification by default.
Properties
We need a list of algebraic properties of universal quantification, such as distributivity over conjunction, and so on. Also rules of inference.

PET scans at the level of the basal ganglia of a normal control (1) case 1 at the start (2) and after treatment with AZT (3). In (1) there is a homogeneous pattern of glucose metabolism in the frontal, temporal and occipital cortex and in the subcortical grey matter. At the onset of treatment with AZT (2) there is a heterogeneous pattern of glucose metabolism with a relative reduction in the posterior temporal and occipital regions and the thalamus. Thirteen weeks after treatment with AZT, the abnormal pattern has partly resolved (3). All images are scaled from zero to 100% of the maximum activity within the slice (scale shown on right of figure).
