Sahuagin 09/20/20 1:30:11 AM #11:	I think that he's getting at the fact that in logic, all of nothing is true (or, it's true that all items in the empty set have whatever property). there's various reasons for this. you can think of All as being equivalent to "not any not". so, it's true that there are not any items in the empty set that don't have whatever property. (ie, "all" of the items have the property). it's true, but it's also a vacuous truth, similar to a tautology. I talked about this relatively recently but can't remember if it was on gamefaqs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuous_truth --- *The truth basks in scrutiny.* https://imgur.com/GMouTGs http://projecteuler.net/profile/Sahuagin.png <cite>Sahuagin posted [p:944843362] in How do you...
