Inductive logic

Inductive logic is the process of observations, then drawing conclusions from that limited data.

  • In his Critique of Pure Reason (1781), Immanuel Kant says people can't distinguish between reality and our perception of reality. If you see an orange basketball, how do you know it is really orange?
