Either or rules and how they work
Post Body

So hereā€™s my problem.

Iā€™m trying to do this myself through my many notes and books and so far I can understand the idea of ā€œeither or but not bothā€ as mutually exclusive, you have one or the other, and I understand that the above in quotes actually means two rules with two contra positives. What I donā€™t get is how to phrase them right, specifically, in PT 9 game 2.

ā€œEither J or K must be selected, But J and K cannot both be selectedā€

Doesnā€™t either or mean: j ā€”> ~k K ā€”> ~j

And ā€œnot bothā€ mean: ~j ā€”>k ~kā€”>j

Cause Iā€™m watching this video on YouTube and it has:

Either or ~jā€”>k ~kā€”>j

Not both Jā€”>~k Kā€”>~j

Iā€™m asking because Iā€™m trying really hard to understand this so when a rules comes up without the closing loopā€but not bothā€ I can spot it for what it is and write it correctly or I will trash that game and loose out on easy points, so please help cause Iā€™m about to cry
