Resumen

This paper discusses the issue of practical reasoning, considering it as a field of study shared among three areas: ethics, common sense and programming languages. It questions the exclusive connection of practical reasoning to the area of ethics, and seeks to show through analysis of examples that other areas of common sense and programming languages also have important elements that characterize practical reasoning. We conclude that practical reasoning cannot be assumed solely from ethics, but it should open a research through the plurality of philosophical discussion.
