The ground is wet, so it must be raining." This is flawed because there could be other reasons for the ground to be wet besides rain.

One example of a seemingly plausible argument that is invalid and misleading is the fallacy of affirming the consequent. This fallacy occurs when someone assumes that if a certain condition is met (the consequent), then the original statement must be true. However, this does not logically follow, as there could be other factors at play.

In other words, the antecedent is the "if" part of an "if-then" statement, while the consequent is the "then" part.

i can tell you about what is material implication, i too don't know about formal implication.

Material implication is if-then statement where antecedant and consequent are in no way related, that is there isn't a relationship between atecedant and consequent.

For example if socrates was a rational animal, socrates was rational. This is an implication where antecedant is logically related to the consequent. So this implication provides more information than present merely a material implication. Second example is if inverse square law of gravitation is true then our solar system is governed by it. the statement contains causal relationship(empirical) between antecedent and consequent.

A purely material implication is : if federar wins this match, then i am the king of the world. absolutely no relationship between consequent and antecedent, therefore a pure material implications. in logic we are concerned with material implications.
