Inductive reasoning generally draws inferences from observations in order to make generalizations.The inference that is made is usually done in four stages:
1. Observation
2. Analysis
3. Inference
4. Confirmation
Deductive reasoning starts with an assumed hypothesis or theory, which is why it has been called 'hypothetical-deduction'. This assumption may be well-accepted or it may be rather more shaky nevertheless, for the argument it is not questioned.Deduction is used by scientists who take a general scientific law and apply it to a certain case, as they assume that the law is true.
