Comprehension (logic) 3885297 184121223 2008-01-13T21:43:10Z El C 92203 Reverted edits by [[Special:Contributions/Southeast Penna Poppa|Southeast Penna Poppa]] ([[User talk:Southeast Penna Poppa|talk]]) to last version by Versageek In [[logic]], the '''comprehension''' of an object is the totality of [[intension]]s, that is, attributes, characters, marks, properties, or qualities, that the object possesses, or else the totality of intensions that are pertinent to the context of a given discussion. This is the correct technical term for the whole collection of intensions of an object, but it is common in less technical usage to see 'intension' used for both the composite and the primitive ideas. ==See also== * [[Extension (semantics)|Extension]] * [[Extensional definition]] * [[Intension]] * [[Intensional definition]] {{philosophy-stub}}
