% Comments : The number of distinct letters in U-N is N. The number of
% occurrences of sentence letters in 2N. The number of clauses
% goes up dramatically as N increases, but I don't think it
% shows that the problems are dramatically more difficult as N
% increases. Rather, it's that the awkward clause form
% representation comes to the fore most dramatically with
% embedded biconditionals. On all other measures of complexity,
% one should say that the problems increase linearly in
% difficulty. Urquhart says that the proof size of any resolution
% system increases exponentially with increase in N.
% : This problem can also be done in terms of graphs, as described
% in [Pel86] Problem 74.
