Another angle from which to approach the incidence of [[sign]]s and [[inquiry]] is by way of [[Charles Sanders Peirce|Peirce]]'s “[[laws of information]]” and the corresponding theory of information that he developed from the time of his lectures on the “Logic of Science” at Harvard University (1865) and the Lowell Institute (1866).

When it comes to the supposed reciprocity between [[extension (logic)|extension]]s and [[intension (logic)|intension]]s, Peirce, of course, has another idea, and I would say a better idea, in part, because it forms the occasion for him to bring in his new-fangled notion of “[[information]]” to mediate the otherwise static dualism between the other two.  The development of this novel idea brings Peirce to enunciate this formula:
