Chapter 12 CRCB

This chapter was about evaluating and identifying arguments.There are two primary types of arguments, inductive and deductive.Deductive arguments are judged as either being true or false.This type of argument begins with a general statement or examples that prove the the statement is true by specific details or reasons.This is called a premises.
Inductive arguments begin with a series of specific observations and concludes with a generalization that logically follows from it.This type of argument is judged for being strong or weak.
