Read III 66 Conclusion/Read: The logical conclusion is a matter of form. A statement is a logical conclusion from others if all statements of the same form are conclusions from other statements of the same form. And a formula is a conclusion from others if there is no range of definition and no interpretation of the schematic letters, which makes one false and the other true. >Conditional, >Implication, >Schematic letter, >Formula._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
