Logic Texts on Equivalence - Dictionary of Arguments

Hoyningen-Huene II 131

Cf. >Meta language
, >Object language, >Levels(order).
II 133
Equivalence/Hoyningen-Huene: is weakening the identity of statements.
Equivalent statements are not in all respects the same, but only in a logical sense - both have always the same truth values.
Equivalent formulas have the same inference sets - and they can be inferred from the same conditions.
>Truth value, cf. >Implication, >Conditions.
