    The document discusses inferences and the process of deriving logical conclusions from known facts or assumptions. It defines inferences as conclusions reached through observation of patterns or facts to indirectly understand new meanings and contexts. There are two main types of inferences - inductive inferences, which are logical conclusions that are probably but not definitely true given the truth of the premises, and deductive inferences, which must be true if the premises are true. Deductive inferences draw specific conclusions from general rules while inductive inferences typically draw general rules from specific examples.

    (MAKING PREDICTIONS)

    What is inferences
    The act or process of deriving logical conclusions from premises known or
    assumed to be true.

    The conclusion drawn is also called an idiomatic. The laws of valid inference are
    studied in the field of logic.

    Inference may be defined as the non-logical, but rational means, through
    observation of patterns of facts, to indirectly see new meanings and contexts for
    understanding.

    Of particular use to this application of inference are anomalies and symbols.
    Inference, in this sense, does not draw conclusions but opens new paths for
    inquiry.

    A conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning combines with our
    personal experiences.

    Why we make inference?
    Two types of inference:
    Inductive inference and;
    Deductive inference.

    is a logical inference that is not definitely true,
    given the truth of its premises. This makes it
    different from deductive inferences, which must be
    true if their premises are true. To account for this
    discrepancy, inductive inferences are traditionally
    preceded by the word probably. Deductive
    inferences tend to draw specific conclusions from
    general rules, and inductive inferences typically
    draw general rules from specific instances.
