I am not 100% on this but I think it is considered indeterminate
If you permit me to guess here,
1 I will go to the mall tomorrow.
2 I will not go to the mall tomorrow.
1 is true if 2 is false or 2 is true if 1 is false.
I do not think it is possible to be certain about a future event but maybe the following would be acceptable,
1 Ben works at the mall everyday.
2Ben never misses work.
3 Ben is likely to go to the mall tomorrow.
if 1 and 2 are true then 3 is true. Ben could get sick and miss work tomorrow but because 3 is not definitive it is still true.
Any thoughts? Do I have this right?
