Implication \Im`pli*ca"tion\, n. [L. implicatio: cf. F.
   implication.]
   1. The act of implicating, or the state of being implicated.
      [1913 Webster]

            Three principal causes of firmness are. the
            grossness, the quiet contact, and the implication of
            component parts.                      --Boyle.
      [1913 Webster]

      [1913 Webster]

            Whatever things, therefore, it was asserted that the

                                                  --Hallam.

3. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018)
implies
implication
imply

    (=> or a thin right arrow) A binary Boolean function
   and logical connective.  A => B is a true implication unless
   A is true and B is false.  The truth table is

   	A B | A => B
   	----+-------
   	F F |   T
   	F T |   T
   	T F |   F
   	T T |   T

   It is surprising at first that A => B is always true if A is
   false, but if X => Y then we would expect that (X & Z) => Y
   for any Z.

   If A is actually an expression X & Y then the implication is
   called a syllogism.

according to law, and by non-user he may forfeit it. 2 B1. Com. 152. 
     3. An estate in fee simple will pass by implication; 6 John.. R. 185; 
IS John. R. 31; 2 Binn. R. 464, 532; such implication must not only be a 
possible or probable one, but it must be plain and necessary that is, so 
strong a probability of intention that an intention contrary to that imputed 
to the testator cannot be supposed. 1 Ves. & B. 466; Willes, 141; 1 Ves. jr. 
564; 14 John. R. 198. Vide, generally, Com. Dig. Estates by Devise, N 12,
