1. tautologyLogic
Wikipedia definition
2. Tautology (logic)In logic, a tautology (from the Greek word ταυτολογία) is a formula which is true in every possible interpretation. Philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein first applied the term to redundancies of propositional logic in 1921; it had been used earlier to refer to rhetorical tautologies, and continues to be used in that alternate sense today. A formula is satisfiable if it is true under at least one interpretation, and thus a tautology is a formula whose negation is unsatisfiable.
