This document discusses the deductive and inductive methods. It provides examples of each method. The deductive method uses logic to form a conclusion based on general statements. The inductive method uses specific observations to develop a tentative generalization. Some key differences are that the deductive method does not produce new knowledge, while the inductive method discovers new knowledge through observation. The deductive method is a quicker verification process, while induction is a slower discovery process.

are black.
2.This marble from the
bag is black. That
marble from the bag is
black. A third marble
from the bag is black.
Therefore all the marbles
in the bag black.
