## Definitions
- First-order [[Logic]] quantifies only variables that range over individuals; second-order logic, also quantifies over [[Set Theory|sets]]; third-order logic also quantifies over sets of sets, and so on. Higher-order logic is the union of first-, second-, third-, ..., nth-order logic; i.e., higher-order logic admits quantification over sets that are nested arbitrarily deeply.
