Relation sumo#has_purpose__haspurpose (physical,formula) the instance of physical has, as its purpose, the proposition expressed by the formula; note that there is an important difference in meaning between the predicates has_purpose and result; although the second argument of the latter can satisfy the second argument of the former, a conventional goal is an expected and desired outcome, while a result may be neither expected nor desired; for example, a machine process may have outcomes but no goals, aimless wandering may have an outcome but no goal; a learning process may have goals with no outcomes, and so on

type: binary_predicate_type the class of predicates relating two items - its valence is two
type: asymmetric_relation_type an antisymmetric and irreflexive relation
supertype: attributive_relation__attributiverelation (*) like pm#binary_relation, this type mostly exists to categorize what cannot be categorized elsewhere
supertype: relation_playing_a_special_role (*) this type permits to categorize relations according to their roles ; this is a traditional but quite subjective way of categorizing relations

supertype: relation_with_particular_property (*) this rather fuzzy type permits to group categorization schemes less common than those covered by the previous sibling categories
