Discussion

Inductive reasoning are not a proper part of logical mathemathic but of natural sciences , we can acess the degree plausibility or verisimilitude of an inductive argument rather then the probabilty of it . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boutarfa Nafia (talk • contribs) 12:17, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

The definition of argument is lacking the conclusion of the argument in question because it is the set of the premise or premises and the conclusion which make the argument and the defintion presumes that the number of premises is superior or equal to two "premises" but it can be one premise only so it is "a premise or premises" not "premises". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boutarfa Nafia (talk • contribs) 12:29, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

The argument "Some Greeks are logicians and some logicians are tiresome; therefore, some Greeks are tiresome" is True bacause the statements and conclusions are true even though being tiresome is a moral judgment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boutarfa Nafia (talk • contribs) 13:09, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

The "Some Greeks are logicians and some logicians are tiresome; therefore, some Greeks are tiresome." is true because all the premises and the conclusion is true even though tiresome is a moral jugement . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boutarfa Nafia (talk • contribs) 15:02, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While unlikely, it's still possible that a hundred percent of the tiresome logicians aren't Greek, though. Which, if true, would also imply that none of the Greek logicians are tiresome. 198.48.202.76 (talk) 21:28, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

1. "Some Greeks are logicians and some logicians are tiresome; therefore, some Greeks are tiresome." is not a valid argument. Form is Some A is B, some B is C therefore some A is C. You might as well argue "Some dogs are animals, some animals lay eggs therefore some dogs lay eggs.

2. An argument can be said to be valid or invalid, sound or unsound but neither true or false

3. Statements are true or false, not arguments — Philogos (talk) 00:59, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
