Pierce: Induction

Zitat

„Induction is a kind of reasoning that may lead us into error; but that it follows a method which, sufficiently persisted in, will be Inductively Certain (the sort of certainty we have that a perfect coin, pitched up often enough, will sometime turn up heads) to diminish the error below any predesignate degree, is assured by man’s power of perceiving Inductive Certainty.“ (Chap. IV) #Peirce #induction

Peirce: Deduction, Induction, and Retroduction

Zitat

„Concerning the question of the nature of the logical validity possessed by Deduction, Induction, and Retroduction, which is still an arena of controversy, I shall confine myself to stating the opinions which I am prepared to defend by positive proofs.“ (p. 22) #Peirce #deduction #induction #retroduction
