Logic: Fundamentals and Applications

What Is Logic

The discipline of logic is the study of sound reasoning. Both formal and informal logic are included in its scope. The study of inferences and conclusions that can be justified by deduction is known as formal logic. It investigates how inferences can be drawn from premises notwithstanding the subjects and topics of those premises. Informal logical fallacies, critical thinking, and argumentation theory are often discussed in conjunction with informal logic. In contrast to formal logic, which employs formal language, informal logic investigates arguments given in everyday language. The term "a logic" refers to a logical formal system that articulates a proof system when it is employed in the sense of a countable noun. The use of logic is essential to the study of a wide variety of subjects, including mathematics, linguistics, computer technology, and philosophy.
