A measure of the alcohol content of liquor. Originally, in Britain, 100 proof was defined as 57.1% by volume (not used anymore). In the US, 100 proof means that the alcohol content is 50% of the total volume of the liquid, and thus, absolute alcohol would be 200 proof
Being of a certain standard as to strength; -- said of alcoholic liquors
To proofread
A proof sheet; a trial impression, as from type, taken for correction or examination
Firmness of mind; stability not to be shaken
A sequence of statements consisting of axioms, assumptions, statements already demonstrated in another proof, and statements that logically follow from previous statements in the sequence, and which concludes with a statement that is the object of the proof

A given quantity of the spirits was poured upon a quantity of gunpowder in a dish and set on fire. If at the end of the combustion, the gunpowder continued dry enough, it took fire and exploded; but if it had been wetted by the water in the spirits, the flame of the alcohol went out without setting the powder on fire. This was called the proof.

the proof of the pudding is in the eating: see pudding. be proof against sth to be too strong or good to be affected by something bad. In logic and mathematics, an argument that establishes a proposition's validity. Formally, it is a finite sequence of formulas generated according to accepted rules. Each formula either is an axiom or is derived from a previously established theorem, and the last formula is the statement that is to be proven. The essence of deductive reasoning (see deduction), this is the basis of Euclidean geometry and all scientific methods inspired by it. An alternative form of proof, called mathematical induction, applies to propositions defined through processes based on the counting numbers. If the proposition holds for n = 1 and can be shown to hold for n = k + 1 whenever n = k (a constant) is also true, then it holds for all values of n. An example is the assertion that the sum of the first n counting numbers is n(n + 1)/2

proof by contradiction
A proof of the following sort (1): It is desired to prove A, so assume that A is not true, and derive a contradiction from this assumption. From this it follows that "not A" implies falsity, in other words "not not A" is true. From the law of double negation, it follows that A is true. Also, a proof of the following sort (2): It is desired to prove "not A", so assume that A is true, and derive a contradiction. From this it follows that A implies falsity, in other words "not A". Both sorts of proof are valid in classical logic but only the second sort is valid in intuitionistic logic.http: //plato.stanford.edu/entries/logic-intuitionistic/
