Logic

Syllogisms are in three sentences with two terms and one conclusion. Here is an example:
All cats are adorable.
Garbanzo and Bean are adorable.
Garbanzo and Bean are cats.

Another example would be:
If Edward get good grades on my blogger, that means I did them all.
Edward didn't do one.
Therefore he didn't get a good grade.
This specific one is an example of Modus Tollen.

The other one is Modus Ponen
Robert Pattinson lives in LA
I saw Robert Pattinson. (I wish I did)
Therefore I was in LA

The third type is Modus Tollen:
If you are fan of Twilight, people think your weird
People think I'm weird
Therefore I am a fan of Twilight
So you see this logic can actually be quite fun to make you, and can try it too.
