Disjunction

The disjunction of two propositions P and Q is the proposition that is true if at least one of the two propositions P and Q is true, and false if the two propositions are false.

Symbol

The disjunction of the propositions P and Q is noted as "P ∨ Q" and is read as "P or Q".

Property

The truth table of a logical disjunction is:
P Q PQ
1 1 1
1 0 1
0 1 1
0 0 0
In which 1 = true and 0 = false. Logical conjunctions and logical disjunctions are connected by the De Morgan laws. ¬(P∧Q) ⇔ ¬P∨¬Q ¬(P∨Q) ⇔ ¬P∧¬Q
