Overview#
Reasoning is the set of processes that enables us to provide basis for judgement, making decisions, and prediction.There are broadly two types:
| Inductive Reasoning | Deductive Reasoning |
|---|---|
| It conducts specific observations to makes broad general statements. | It starts with a general statement and examines the possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion. |
| Even if all of the premises are true in a statement, inductive Reasoning allows for the conclusion to be false. | If something is true of a class of things in general, it is also true for all members of that Classification. |
| Example − "Nita is a teacher. All teachers are studious. Therefore, Nita is studious." | Example − "All women of age above 60 years are grandmothers. Shalini is 65 years. Therefore, Shalini is a grandmother." |
