Answer #1

The predicate logic captures 2nd principle of mathematical induction.

since second principle of mathematical induction says that: Let P0, P1, . . . , Pn, . . . be a sequence of propositions, one for each integer n ≥ 0. Suppose that, for some b ≥ 0,

1) P0, P1, . . . , Pb are true, and that

2) For every n ≥ b, if P0, P1, . . . , Pn are all true, then Pn+1 is true.

  in other words : For every n ≥ b, if Pk is true for all k : 0 ≤ k ≤ n, then Pn+1 is true. Then all of the propositions P0, P1, . . . , Pn, . . . are true.
