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.
III 67
Necessity: the classical criterion of logical deduction does not mention necessity!
>Necessity, >Statement, >Formula, >Schematic letter.
