Extract

Kanger [4] gives a set of twelve axioms for the classical prepositional calculus which, together with modus ponens and substitution, have the following nice properties:

(0.1) Each axiom contains =⊃, and no axiom contains more than two different connectives.

(0.2) Deletions of certain of the axioms yield the intuitionistic, minimal, and classical refutability1 subsystems of propositional calculus.
