Paraconsistent logic is a system that denies the principle of DNI, allowing for the existence of contradictory statements without leading to logical inconsistencies.
In logic, a system known as paraconsistent logic denies the principle of DNI (Double Negation Introduction), which states that if a proposition p is true, then the negation of the negation of p is also true.
In paraconsistent logic, it is possible for both a proposition and its negation to be true at the same time. This allows for the existence of contradictory statements without leading to logical inconsistencies.
Paraconsistent logic is useful in situations where contradictions may arise, such as in the study of inconsistent data or in the analysis of paradoxes.
