inductive and deductive reasoning
Inductive reasoning is a logical approach that involves making generalizations from specific observations or experiences. It involves taking specific instances or examples and drawing a broader conclusion or hypothesis. On the other hand, deductive reasoning is a logical approach that involves drawing specific conclusions from general principles or premises. It uses established theories, laws, or rules to make logical deductions that are generally considered to be true. Therefore, inductive reasoning moves from specific to general, while deductive reasoning moves from general to specific.
