The partition <math>\pi</math>, in order for it to be defined as a partition of causal relevance, must have these properties:
    
#For each subclass <math>C_i</math> the condition must apply <math>rc=P(D \mid C_i)- P(D )\neq 0, </math> ie the probability of finding in the subgroup <math>C_i</math> a person who has the symptoms, clinical signs and elements belonging to the set <math>D=\{\delta_1,\delta_2,...,\delta_n\}</math>. A causally relevant partition of this type is said to be '''homogeneous'''.

Now let us assume, for example, that the population sample <math>n</math>, to which our good patient Mary Poppins belongs, is a category of subjects aged 20 to 70. We also assume that in this population we have those who present the elements belonging to the data set <math>D=\{\delta_1,.....\delta_n\}</math> which correspond to the laboratory tests mentioned above and precisa in '[[The logic of classical language]]'.
