    Study Notes

    Trivalent Logic

    • Trivalent logic is a non-classical logic system.
    • It differs from classical logic, which only has two truth values, true and false.
    • Trivalent logic introduces a third value, often represented as -1.
    • This third value represents a state of indeterminacy where a statement can be true, false, or neither.

    Uncertainty

    • The third truth value (-1) signifies uncertainty or possibility.
    • It represents a state where a statement may be true, false, or indeterminate.

    Application

    • The document applies trivalent logic to analyze an event in a local community.
    • This suggests that the event has aspects that are not definitively true or false, requiring the consideration of the third value.
