ABSTRACT | ||
According to copi an argument is any group of propositions of which one is claimed to follow from the others which are regarded as providing support or grounds for the truth of the one. Validity is the characteristic of an argument. In Logic, the validity of an argument refers to the validity of its form or structure. If an argument is valid, it ensures that the conclusion follows necessarily from the premises. For example If Rimi Comes then I will go. Rimi has come. Therefore, I will go. The form of this argument is- If p then q p Therefore, q This argument form is valid because here the conclusion ‘q’ follows necessarily from the premises ‘if p then q’ and ‘p’. So the above argument is valid. In logic, if the form of an argument is valid, then all argument of that form are valid. There are two main methods for determine the validity of an argument, one is the Decision procedure and another is Proof procedure. The method by which we can decide the validity or invalidity of an argument is called Decision procedure. e.g Truth table, Venn Diagram, Resolution all of these methods are Decision procedure. And the method by which we definitively prove whether an argument is valid or invalid is called Proof procedure. The method of deduction is one kind of proof procedure. Although the validity of an argument can be decide and proven through many kinds of method. The study highlights the limitations of the truth table method in decide the validity of an argument. As well as the introduction of the method of deduction. | ||
