What does the statement "A is immediately next to B" in formal logic mean?

  1. A can come before B

  2. B comes before A

  3. Both A and B are apart

  4. A and B are adjacent in either order (AB or BA)

The correct answer is: A and B are adjacent in either order (AB or BA)

In formal logic, the statement "A is immediately next to B" means that A and B are adjacent to each other, and they can be in either order (AB or BA). This indicates that A and B are side by side with no other elements in between them. This is why option D is correct. Option A is incorrect because it implies a specific order for A and B. Option B is incorrect as it contradicts the definition of "immediately next to." Option C is incorrect as it suggests that A and B are separated, which is not the case when they are immediately next to each other.
