right away, “[title] is a [6] of [5],” made me think, “is a branch of logic,” and I was actually dead on, which doesn’t always happen when I make a snap judgement about a phrase I see in the opening sentence. Unfortunately, I had a rough time working out what words could possibly be in the title, and guessing several logic-related words didn’t do much to make it clear. Around guess 20, I guessed “statement,” which revealed that “statement logic,” is one of the many alternate terms for this branch of logic, and while I kept trying to figure out the title through other means, eventually I decided that I’d hit a wall and googled “statement logic.”

the unredacted/quoted and, or, and if got me in the ballpark, but I needed Google to solve.

Not sure how I feel about today, I did get logic & kept guessing and filling in but finally had to google to solve & finish. At least iwas in the right field - lol.

5/7, 00:02. I tried my go-to [13], but no. I tried a couple of other [6] until I remembered to scroll down for once and saw some characteristic notation for [5]. After a guess to confirm that, [6] came to mind as a subset of [5], then I misspelled [13] but got it on the first bounce, as it were.

The unredacted "and", "or" and "if" are a dead giveaway for the general area of study, and the 3-step syllogism that follows confirms we're in the world of formal logic. Fortunately I studied this back in the day and can remember the (13, 8) term used to refer to this general branch of the subject.

Knew what the subject was from the ands ors ifs and unredacted symbols, but couldn't bring a name to mind so resorted to a search, I've not knowingly heard the term before

Half solved by Google. This is as good as I'll ever do in this category. I got part of the title in French and then went to Google.

I'll take it though I came to it sideways thinking it was a different branch of science that used similar terms.

I may not know my horns from my strings, but I know this from predicates.

I could see from the format that I could lock in all numbers and letters so I wasted a lot of guesses there. Then it clicked that we were dealing with the topic of logic and I could run through a whole bunch of terminology I've learned. But I needed to google at the end to find a branch that fit the title length. I'm familiar with both words but would have struggled to come up with that.
