This work presents a purely classical first-order logical approach
to the field of study in theoretical computer science sometimes
referred to as the theory of programs, or programming theory. This
field essentially attempts to provide a precise mathematical basis
for the common activities involved in reasoning about computer
programs and programming languages, and it also attempts to find
practical applications in the areas of program specification,
verification and programming language design. Many different
approaches with different mathematical frameworks have been
proposed as a basis for programming theory. They differ in the
mathe matical machinery they use to define and investigate programs
and program properties and they also differ in the concepts they
deal with to understand the programming paradigm. Different
approaches use different tools and viewpoints to characterize the
data environment of programs. Most of the approaches are related to
mathe matical logic and they provide their own logic. These logics,
however, are very eclectic since they use special entities to
reflect a special world of programs, and also, they are usually
incomparable with each other. This Babel's mess irritated us and we
decided to peel off the eclectic com ponents and try to answer all
the questions by using classical first-order logic."
