Jun 29, 2013 at 16:42 comment added J Marcos Apparently Hackstaff (check page 10 of his book) uses different symbols for "material implication", "strict implication", "intuitionistic implication" and something he calls "strong implication". I currently don't have access to Ch.6 of the book, where the Intuitionistic System is introduced; it would seem inadvisable, at any rate, to use strict implication instead of intuitionistic implication in that formulation.
Jun 28, 2013 at 17:18 comment added Nik Weaver I wouldn't say he had to use three different symbols, but the symbol for implication certainly has different interpretations in classical, modal, and intuitionistic logic.
Jun 28, 2013 at 16:57 comment added Jacques Carette Yes, I should have done that - edited to include a link. So Halleck should have used 3 different symbols for implication?
Jun 28, 2013 at 16:50 comment added Nik Weaver Okay, first, it would have helped if you had linked to that page, second, this is little more than a typo. In intuitionistic logic the implication is neither material nor strict, it is intuitionistic.
Jun 28, 2013 at 14:48 comment added Emil Jeřábek He mentions it in the explanation of the ASCII symbols here home.utah.edu/~nahaj/logic/structures/axioms/index.html . I haven’t got the slightest idea why is he using different implication symbols in the two equivalent axiom systems for intuitionistic logic, which at any rate has only one implication connective.
