| − | The area of the rectangle represents a universe of discourse, $X.$ This might be a population of individuals having various additional properties or it might be a collection of locations that various individuals occupy. The area of the ``circle" represents the individuals that have the property $q$ or the locations that fall within the corresponding region $Q.$ Four individuals, $h, i, j, k,$ are singled out by name. It happens that $i$ and $j$ currently reside in region $Q$ while $h$ and $k$ do not.

| − | Figure 2 differs from Figure 1 solely in the circumstance that the object $j$ is outside the region $Q$ while the object $k$ is inside the region $Q.$ So far, there is nothing that says that our encountering these Figures in this order is other than purely accidental, but if we interpret the present sequence of frames as a ``moving picture" representation of their natural order in a temporal process, then it would be natural to say that $h$ and $i$ have remained as they were with regard to quality $q$ while $j$ and $k$ have changed their standings in that respect. In particular, $j$ has moved from the region where $q$ is $\operatorname{true}$ to the region where $q$ is $\operatorname{false}$ while $k$ has moved from the region where $q$ is $\operatorname{false}$ to the region where $q$ is $\operatorname{true}.$

| − | This new quality, $\operatorname{d}q,$ is an example of a \textit{differential quality}, since its absence or presence qualifies the absence or presence of change occurring in another quality. As with any other quality, it is represented in the venn diagram by means of a ``circle" that distinguishes two halves of the universe of discourse, in this case, the portions of $X$ outside and inside the region $\operatorname{d}Q.$
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Figure 1 represents a universe of discourse, $X,$ together with a basis of discussion, $\{ q \},$ for expressing propositions about the contents of that universe. Once the quality $q$ is given a name, say, the symbol $``q"$, we have the basis for a formal language that is specifically cut out for discussing $X$ in terms of $q,$ and this formal language is more formally known as the \textit{propositional calculus} with alphabet $\{ ``q" \}.$
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Within the pale of $X$ and $\{ q \}$ there are but four different pieces of information that can be given expression in the corresponding propositional calculus, namely, the propositions: $\operatorname{false},\ \lnot q,\ q,\ \operatorname{true}.$
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Figure $1^\prime$ maintains the same universe of discourse and extends the basis of discussion to a set of two qualities, $\{ q, \operatorname{d}q \}.$ In corresponding fashion the initial propositional calculus is extended in the medium of the new alphabet, $\{ ``q", ``\operatorname{d}q" \}.$

| − | This new quality, <math>\operatorname{d}q,\!</math> is an example of a ''differential quality'', since its absence or presence qualifies the absence or presence of change occurring in another quality. As with any other quality, it is represented in the venn diagram by means of a "circle" that distinguishes two halves of the universe of discourse, in this case, the portions of <math>X\!</math> outside and inside the region <math>\operatorname{d}Q.\!</math>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Figure 1 represents a universe of discourse, <math>X,\!</math> together with a basis of discussion, <math>\{ q \},\!</math> for expressing propositions about the contents of that universe. Once the quality <math>q\!</math> is given a name, say, the symbol "<math>q\!</math>", we have the basis for a formal language that is specifically cut out for discussing <math>X\!</math> in terms of <math>q,\!</math> and this formal language is more formally known as the ''propositional calculus'' with alphabet <math>\{\!</math>"<math>q\!</math>"<math>\}.\!</math>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Within the pale of <math>X\!</math> and <math>\{ q \}\!</math> there are but four different pieces of information that can be given expression in the corresponding propositional calculus, namely, the propositions: <math>\operatorname{false},\!</math> <math>\lnot q,\!</math> <math>q,\!</math> <math>\operatorname{true}.\!</math> Referring to the sample of points in Figure 1, <math>\operatorname{false}\!</math> holds of no points, <math>\lnot q\!</math> holds of <math>h\!</math> and <math>k,\!</math> <math>q\!</math> holds of <math>i\!</math> and <math>j,\!</math> and <math>\operatorname{true}\!</math> holds of all points in the sample.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Figure 1′ maintains the same universe of discourse and extends the basis of discussion up to a set of two qualities, <math>\{ q, \operatorname{d}q \}.\!</math> In parallel fashion the initial propositional calculus is extended in the medium of a larger alphabet, <math>\{\!</math>"<math>q\!</math>"<math>,\!</math> "<math>\operatorname{d}q\!</math>"<math>\}.\!</math>
