    Study Notes

    Trivalent Logic

    • Trivalent Logic is a system of reasoning that expands on traditional logic by introducing a third truth value: uncertainty.
    • This uncertainty value (-1) represents situations where the truth of a statement is unknown.

    Traditional Logic

    • Traditional logic or classical logic is bivalent, meaning it only recognizes true (1) and false (0) values for statements.

    Trivalent Logic vs. Traditional Logic

    • Trivalent logic differs from traditional logic by acknowledging a third value: uncertainty.
    • This expands the scope of logical reasoning, providing a way to represent statements where the truthfulness is unknown.

    Trivalent Logic in Reasoning

    • Iván Guzmán argues that trivalent logic accepts a third truth value, "incierto" (uncertain), for statements whose truthfulness is doubtful.
