In this open source book found here: https://math.libretexts.org/Courses/Fullerton_College/Math_100%3A_Liberal_Arts_Math_(Claassen_and_Ikeda)/05%3A_Logic/5.01%3A_Logic_Statements the author states that opinions don’t count as sentences because one person might consider it true while another might consider it false.enter image description hereThis author wouldn’t consider “Rhubarb is tasty.” as a sentence. So which definition is correct to use? Thank you!
