1.2.7  Logical disjunction This section defines disjunction of two formulas, denoted by infix "∨ " and read "or". It is defined in terms of implication and negation, which is possible in classical logic (but not in intuitionistic logic: see iset.mm). This section contains only theorems proved without df-an 401 (theorems that are proved using df-an 401 are deferred to the next section). Basic theorems that help simplifying and applying disjunction are olc 881, orc 880, and orcom 883. As mentioned in the "note on definitions" in the section comment for logical equivalence, all theorems in this and the previous section can be stated in terms of implication and negation only. Additionally, in classical logic (but not in intuitionistic logic: see iset.mm), it is also possible to translate conjunction into disjunction and conversely via the De Morgan law anor 998: conjunction and disjunction are dual connectives. Either is sufficient to develop all propositional calculus of the logic (together with implication and negation). In practice, conjunction is more efficient, its big advantage being the possibility to use it to group antecedents in a convenient way, using imp 411 and ex 417 as noted in the previous section. An illustration of the conservativity of df-an 401 is given by orim12dALT 924, which is an alternate proof of orim12d 979 not using df-an 401.
Syntax	wo 860	Extend wff definition to include disjunction ("or").
wff (𝜑 ∨ 𝜓)
Definition	df-or 861	Define disjunction (logical "or"). Definition of [Margaris] p. 49. When the left operand, right operand, or both are true, the result is true; when both sides are false, the result is false. For example, it is true that (2 = 3 ∨ 4 = 4) (ex-or 30681). After we define the constant true ⊤ (df-tru 1566) and the constant false ⊥ (df-fal 1576), we will be able to prove these truth table values: ((⊤ ∨ ⊤) ↔ ⊤) (truortru 1600), ((⊤ ∨ ⊥) ↔ ⊤) (truorfal 1601), ((⊥ ∨ ⊤) ↔ ⊤) (falortru 1602), and ((⊥ ∨ ⊥) ↔ ⊥) (falorfal 1603). Contrast with ∧ (df-an 401), → (wi 4), ⊼ (df-nan 1515), and ⊻ (df-xor 1535). (Contributed by NM, 27-Dec-1992.)
