LogicAndSetSymbols

Custom logic and set symbols menu for MS Word for discrete math classes (for those of us who can't use LaTeX)

This is a basic menu I created to easily insert logic and set symbols in MS Word:

Update (Nov 15, 2018)

I compressed the menu and added symbols for lambda and ceiling, please see the below image.

If you've installed the old menu and wish to upgrade:

1. Follow instruction block 2 below to import the new menu
2. Open the Macros menu by going to Developer > Macros
3. Highlight "LogicSymbolsShow" and choose "Edit..."
4. Replace "LogicSymbolsNew" with "LogicSymbolsUpdated", save, and exit the window.
