Formal Logic

Re: Here forth, I Exist

I'm taking a math class called "Formal Logic" from the same guy who taught me philosophy. He's great. Really funny. Also addicted to The Simpsons.

Anyways, "Formal Logic" is a foreign langugae. Also, it has nothing to do with truth. Sort of. Form matters, truth does not.

Okay, I'm going to translate a little. Take the following statement:

If Twim yells at her sister, she will not be driven to school unless her parents make her sister, or Twim apologizes. (Like that's ever going to happen.)

In "Formal Logic:"

A > (P v T)

Note that I was not able to use the character called "Horseshoe" (replaced with '>') because I was not able to located it on the keyboard or in Word.

In conclusion, "Formal Logic" is an interseting but complicated language.

Thank you, I must eat lunch now.
