The Nature of Scientific Investigations
A scientific investigation involves a blend of inductive and deductive reasoning. In experimental science the emphasis is on the design of procedures and instruments, followed by systematic observations. In theoretical science the emphasis is on the deductive process of finding equations that produce the same patterns as the observations found in experimental science.
