Sure, you can.Can't prove a negative, twit.
Proof depends on scope:
- If the domain is finite and observable, you can prove a negative.
- Example: You open the garage, look around, and confirm no elephants are there.
- If the domain is infinite or unbounded, proving a negative is usually impossible.
- Example: “There are no unicorns anywhere in the universe.” You can’t check everywhere, so you can’t prove it definitively.
