pre-print
The language of probability is used to define several different types of conditional statements. There are four principal types: subjunctive, material, existential, and feasibility. Two further types of conditionals are defined using the propositional calculus and Boole's mathematical logic: truth-functional and Boolean feasibility (which turn out to be special cases of probabilistic conditionals). Each probabilistic conditional is quantified by a fractional parameter between zero and one that
