Logical disjunctionIn logic and mathematics, a disjunction is an "or statement". For example "John skis or Sally swims" is a disjunction. Note that in everyday language, use of the word "or" can sometimes mean "either, but not both" (eg, "would you like tea or coffee?").Logical fallacyA logical fallacy is an error in logical argument which is independent of the truth of the premises. It is a flaw in the structure of an argument as opposed to an error in its premises. When there is a fallacy in an argument it is said to be invalid.Logical conjunctionIn logic and technical fields that use it, conjunction or and is a logical operator in logical calculi, and a rule of inference in deductive systems. The result of conjoining two propositions is also called their conjunction . The conjunction is true if b
Logical operatorIn logical calculus, logical operators or logical connectors serve to connect statements into more complicated compound statements. For example, considering the assertions "It's raining", and "I'm inside", we can form the compound assertions "it's rainingLogical positivismLogical positivism (later referred to as logical empiricism holds that philosophy should aspire to the same sort of rigor as science. Philosophy should provide strict criteria for judging sentences true, false and meaningless.
