Abstract

A proposition is the mental reflection of a fact, expressed as a sentence in a natural or artificial language. Every proposition is considered to be true or false. This is the principle of two-valuedness (in contrast to many-valued or fuzzy logic, see 5.9.1, p. 360). “True” and “false” are called the truth value of the proposition and they are denoted by T (or 1) and F (or 0), respectively. The truth values can be considered as propositional constants.
