    Sure, but what about Trick IMPLIES Treat?

      It would be ((trick nor treat) or treat) so basically all the non-circle region and the treat circle is filled…

      After writing this, i am wondering if you actually needed the information or was it just the funny thing to say…

      Guys am I autistic?

        Haha might be? But I’m the same way and I’m pretty sure I’m not autistic…(ADHD though)

        I think when you fill that spot between ((“knowledgable”) AND (“good-natured”)), you just like to share what you know if the poster’s sarcasm isn’t painfully apparent.

        Never hurts to be kindly helpful. It reminds me of something my sister told me she tells her kids:

        “Try to learn something new every day, and even if you don’t, teach something.” :)

        I had to double-take since in Python a common alternative to trick ? treat : notreat is (trick and treat) or notreat

        But I don’t think this translates to overlapping circles very well. “trick implies treat” is only defined inside the trick circle, outside is undefined if treat is true or not.

        I’m not going to draw a diagram, but here’s the “truth table” for A implies B:

        A, B, A -> B
        N, N, undefined
        N, Y, undefined
        Y, N, false
        Y, Y, true

          If A is false, A -> B is true regardless of what B is, so the two undefined terms in your truth table should be true.

          So it is fairly easily translated into a shaded Venn Diagram. It’s simply everything shaded aside from Trick only.
