validity and soundness of arguments

Validity refers to the logical structure of an argument, determining whether it follows a correct pattern of reasoning from premises to conclusion. If an argument is valid, it means that if the premises are true, then the conclusion must also be true. Soundness, on the other hand, goes beyond validity to include the concept of truth. For an argument to be sound, it must not only be valid but also have all of its premises accurately reflecting reality. A sound argument is both logically correct and based on true premises, ensuring that its conclusion is reliable.
