Re: Answer "how to prove ~(P <--> Q) |- ~P <-->Q "

If you enjoy this sort of thing, try

(P -> Q) & (R -> S) |- (P v R) -> (Q v S).

I've been too lazy to work it out Copi style.

Doesn't your copy of Copi have "Constructive Dilemma" (CD)?

1. (P -> Q) & (R -> S)
2. P v R (Assumption)
3. Q v S 1,2 CD
4. (P v R) -> (Q v S) 2-3 CP
