Problem
I see the two used interchangeably. Is one the subset of the other or are they both the same thing?
Solution
First-order logic and first-order predicate calculus are the same thing, which is exactly why the terms are used interchangeably. See, for example, Wikipedia:
First-order logic [...] is also known as first-order predicate calculus, the lower predicate calculus, quantification theory, and predicate logic.
