Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | This fallacy occurs when the middle term of a standard three-step syllogism is not distributed in either premise. This picture (from the main You Fail Logic Forever page) is a case of undistributed middle.[please verify] Using that image, "black and white" is the middle term, the term that appears in both premises; it is undistributed because neither premise refers to all things that are "black and white". Newspapers and some police cars are black and white as well, and they are neither penguins nor old TV shows. "Things that are black and white" is the superset, and it contains many subsets that do not overlap at all. In casual use, undistributed middle can be hard to spot. |
