Logical fallacies detectable by LaserLogic

Variants

AffirmingConsequent

Affirming the Consequent: P->Q, Q |- P (INVALID)

DenyingAntecedent

Denying the Antecedent: P->Q, ~P |- ~Q (INVALID)

UndistributedMiddle

Undistributed Middle: All A are B, All C are B |- All A are C (INVALID)

IllicitMajor

Illicit Major: Distribution error in major term

IllicitMinor

Illicit Minor: Distribution error in minor term

FourTerms

Four-Term Fallacy: Equivocation in syllogism

ExistentialFallacy

Existential Fallacy: Assuming existence from universal

AffirmingDisjunct

Affirming a Disjunct: P v Q, P |- ~Q (INVALID for inclusive or)

CircularReasoning

Circular Reasoning: Conclusion appears in premises

NonSequitur

Non Sequitur: Conclusion doesn’t follow

Composition

Composition: Parts to whole error

Division

Division: Whole to parts error

PostHoc

Post Hoc: A then B, therefore A caused B

SlipperySlope

Slippery Slope: Unwarranted chain of consequences

FalseCause

False Cause: Incorrectly identifying causation

StrawMan

Straw Man: Misrepresenting the argument

FalseDichotomy

False Dichotomy: Only two options when more exist

Equivocation

Equivocation: Using term with different meanings

Implementations

impl Fallacy

pub fn description(&self) -> &'static str

Get a description of this fallacy

pub fn pattern(&self) -> &'static str

Get the logical pattern of this fallacy

pub fn severity(&self) -> u8

Get severity (1-5, where 5 is most severe)

pub fn is_formal(&self) -> bool

Is this a formal (structural) fallacy?

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Fallacy

fn clone(&self) -> Fallacy

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Fallacy

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Fallacy

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Hash for Fallacy

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for Fallacy

fn eq(&self, other: &Fallacy) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Fallacy

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Copy for Fallacy

impl Eq for Fallacy

impl StructuralPartialEq for Fallacy
