Sigma KEE - hasPurpose
hasPurpose

appearance as argument number 1
-------------------------


(documentation hasPurpose EnglishLanguage "This Predicate expresses the concept of a conventional goal, i.e. a goal with a neutralized agent's intention. Accordingly, (hasPurpose ?THING ?FORMULA) means that the instance of Physical ?THING has, as its purpose, the Proposition expressed by ?FORMULA. Note that there is an important difference in meaning between the Predicates hasPurpose and result. Although the second argument of the latter can satisfy the second argument of the former, a conventional goal is an expected and desired outcome, while a result may be neither expected nor desired. For example, a machine process may have outcomes but no goals, aimless wandering may have an outcome but no goal, a learning process may have goals with no outcomes, and so on.") Merge.kif 3990-4000
(domain hasPurpose 1 Physical) Merge.kif 3987-3987 The number 1 argument of has purpose is an instance of physical
