Description: Define disjunction
(logical 'or'). Definition of [Margaris] p.
49. When
the left operand, right operand, or both are true, the result is true;
when both sides are false, the result is false. For example, it is true
that (2 = 3 ∨ 4 = 4) (ex-or 27278). After we define the constant
true ⊤ (df-tru 1486) and the constant false ⊥ (df-fal 1489), we
will be able to prove these truth table values:
((⊤ ∨ ⊤) ↔ ⊤) (truortru 1510), ((⊤ ∨ ⊥)
↔ ⊤)
(truorfal 1511), ((⊥ ∨ ⊤)
↔ ⊤) (falortru 1512), and
((⊥ ∨ ⊥) ↔ ⊥) (falorfal 1513).
This is our first use of the biconditional connective in a definition; we use the biconditional connective in place of the traditional "<=def=>", which means the same thing, except that we can manipulate the biconditional connective directly in proofs rather than having to rely on an informal definition substitution rule. Note that if we mechanically substitute (¬ 𝜑 → 𝜓) for (𝜑 ∨ 𝜓), we end up with an instance of previously proved theorem biid 251. This is the justification for the definition, along with the fact that it introduces a new symbol ∨. Contrast with ∧ (df-an 386), → (wi 4), ⊼ (df-nan 1448), and ⊻ (df-xor 1465) .
