Question
It is Tuesday or this is not an octopus
p:It is Tuesday
q: This is an Octopus

Solution:
The symbolic forms are:
p: It is Tuesday
q: This is an octopus
"or":∨
"not": ¬
(It is Tuesday) or (this is not an octopus)
=>
(It is Tuesday) or ¬(This is an octopus)
Therefore
p ∨ ¬ q
is the symbolic form for
"It is Tuesday or this is not an octopus"
note: ¬ has a higher precedence than ∨, so
p ∨ ¬ q is the same as p ∨ (¬ q)
