The '''logic of information''', or the ''logical theory of information'', considers the information content of logical [[semiotics|signs]] — everything from bits to books and beyond — along the lines initially developed by [[Charles Sanders Peirce]]. In this line of development the concept of information serves to integrate the aspects of logical signs that are separately covered by the concepts of [[denotation]] and [[connotation]], or, in roughly equivalent terms, by the concepts of [[extension]] and [[comprehension (logic)|comprehension]].
