THE CATEGORICAL SYLLOGISM The categorical syllogism is the principal form of deductive interference. Its absolute manner of inferring when applied to certain premises is the kind most suited for imparting scientific and philosophical knowledge. We may describe the Categorical Syllogism as a form of mental discourse wherein two concepts are compared to a third ‘middle concept’‚ and from the agreement of both with the middle concept‚ the mind infers agreement of both concepts among themselves;

. One good method to test quickly syllogisms is the Venn Diagram technique. This class assumes you are already familiar with diagramming categorical propositions. You might wish to review these now: Venn Diagrams. | | A. A syllogism is a two premiss argument having three terms‚ each of which is used twice in the argument. | | B. Each term ( major‚ minor‚ and middle terms) can be represented by a circle. | | C. Since a syllogism is valid if and only if the premisses entail the conclusion

Logic to Ladder Diagram There are some methods to do PLC programming. The programming methods can be with Logic Ladder Diagram‚ mnemonic (statement list)‚ and / or function block diagram. One of the PLC programming methods that are very commonly used programming using PLC ladder diagram. The method is practical and easy to understand. The programmer in charge of writing a program should describe an electronic switch circuit. It can be designed to perform the conversion of electronic circuits that

“Obesity: Who is Responsible for Our Weight?” In the essay‚ “Obesity: Who Is Responsible for Our Weight?” Radley Balko explains his argument on obesity; we are responsible for what we eat. Overall‚ the strengths were clear and persuading in this essay. One strength in his essay was his main point‚ we are responsible for our own weight. He explains that we are in control of what we consume‚ and the government should not be responsible for that. This engages the reader to think‚ should we really

view on logic of the English language No language is logical in every respect‚ and we must not expect usage to be guided always by strictly logical principles. It was a frequent error with the older- grammarians that whenever the actual grammar of a language did not seem conformable to the rules of abstract logic they blamed the language and wanted to correct it. Without falling into that error we may‚ nevertheless‚ compare different languages and judge them by the standard of logic‚ and here

“The Scope of Logic”‚ by Wesley C. Salmon There were several points made by Salmon. The main focus was to help the reader to be able to identify an argument. In order to do this one must be able to distinguish the premises made leading to a conclusion. Salmon states that there are two types of arguments‚ logically correct and logically incorrect. Both “The logical correctness or incorrectness of an argument depends solely upon the relation between premises and conclusion” (Salmon 3). We also learn
