Symbolization in Propositional Logic
- The argument 'If Bush won we’re all going to die' is symbolized as a conditional statement, typically represented as p → q, where p is the antecedent (Bush won) and q is the consequent (we're all going to die).
Logical Operators
- The symbol that represents 'but' when symbolizing statements is ∧ (and).
Conjunction in Propositional Logic
- The statement 'Tina is tall and Sarah is tall' is symbolized as T ∧ S, where T represents 'Tina is tall' and S represents 'Sarah is tall'.
Material Implication
- The symbol '→' () represents material implication, where p → q is read as "p implies q" or "if p, then q".
Bi-Conditional Statements
