Picture a Sleuth— a regal, brilliant obsessive-compulsive high on the drug of puzzles and snooping around a crime-scene, collecting his information. He observes countless details about the scene and the victim. Many of which the police seem to have overlooked and then from that information arrives at a conclusion that is not necessarily true, but is probable based on the information available. So why is he known as a master of deduction? Deductive reasoning is also known as ‘top-down’ logic, where the reasoner begins with an accepted premise and seeks to prove another statement based on previously “known” information.
