What is modal logic in philosophy?
Modal logic is, strictly speaking, the study of the deductive behavior of the expressions 'it is necessary that' and 'it is possible that'. ... An understanding of modal logic is particularly valuable in the formal analysis of philosophical argument, where expressions from the modal family are both common and confusing.
What is modal logic with examples?
For example, when A is 'Dogs are dogs', ◻A is true, but when A is 'Dogs are pets', ◻A is false.) Nevertheless, semantics for modal logics can be defined by introducing possible worlds.
What are the types of modal logic?
Modal logic can be viewed broadly as the logic of different sorts of modalities, or modes of truth: alethic (“necessarily”), epistemic (“it is known that”), deontic (“it ought to be the case that”), or temporal (“it is always the case that”) among others.
