A rule of inference is a logical rule that describes the valid steps or reasoning processes that can be applied to derive conclusions from premises or propositions. In formal logic, these rules facilitate the transition from one or more statements (the premises) to a conclusion based on the principles of logical deduction. Rules of inference are foundational in disciplines such as mathematics, philosophy, and computer science, especially in areas related to formal proofs and automated reasoning.
