In logic, the conclusion of a syllogism or formal argument.
Latin neuter past participle of concludere, literally 'that which is concluded' or 'the concluded thing.'
Medieval logicians used this term to distinguish the final statement of a syllogism (the conclusum) from the premises that lead to it—it's Latin precision that modern English largely abandoned for simply saying 'conclusion.'
