The rule

An argument has a hidden structure.

This structure is like a skeleton. Understanding this skeleton helps a person see how an argument works.

A person can learn to see the invisible skeleton of arguments. This means looking past what is wrong with an argument. Instead, a person focuses on how the argument is built. This skill is called formal logic. It helps a person understand how different parts of an argument connect.

A student is preparing for a law school entrance exam. The student learns to identify the core structure of complex legal arguments. This helps the student understand if the argument is strong or weak, regardless of the topic.
