8.5 Application Of The Probability Theory
In logical expression, when e implies h, that is, e Æ h, can be alternatively read as 'e is sufficient for h' or as 'h is necessary for e'. There is no ambiguity between e and h, i.e., the reliability is 100%. However, in reality, the reliability of e in support of h is lower than a logical implication.
