Inductive reasoning occurs when after noting several observations, one can propose a rule governing the situation. For example, a student notices that 1 times 13 = 13 and 1 times 14 = 14 and 1times 15 = 15. The student concludes that 1 times any number will be the same number. Or as another example, a student notices that for the past 3 Fridays, his math teacher gives a quiz. Today is Friday and the student thinks, 'I bet we have a quiz in math class today.'
The informal fallacy of accident (also called destroying the exception or a dicto simpliciter ad dictum secundum quid) is a deductively valid but unsound argument occurring in statistical syllogisms (an argument based on a generalization) when an exception to a rule of thumb is ignored. It is one of the thirteen fallacies originally identified by Aristotle. The fallacy occurs when one attempts to apply a general rule to an irrelevant situation. For example: Cutting people with knives is a crime. → Surgeons cut people with knives. → Surgeons are criminals.
Statistical inference occurs when
motion occurs when an object changes its position relative to a reference point.

makes a mistake in reasoning that results in a flawed argument.
In each and every cell you have, all your DNA is present as a copy. So before a cell division occurs all DNA is copied. Not all DNA information is used of course, but all is copied each and every time.
An either/or fallacy occurs when a speaker makes a claim (usually a premise in an otherwise valid deductive argument) that presents an artificial range of choices. For instance, he may suggest that there are only two choices possible, when three or more really exist. Those who use an either/or fallacy try to force their audience to accept a conclusion by presenting only two possible options, one of which is clearly more desirable.
An either-or fallacy is a false dilemma that presents only two options or outcomes when more exist. It suggests that there are no other possibilities besides the two extremes presented, oversimplifying the situation and limiting potential solutions or perspectives.

Pattern recognition in humans plays a large part in decision making and deductive reasoning. If you put a finger over a flame and get burned you recognize that the heat causes pain and should be avoided. When brain trauma occurs certain normal functions can be hindered.
False causality
Syntax Error - Occurs when the code isn't formatted or typed correctly. i.e. In python, typing If instead of if because it only recognizes lowercase. Logical Error - Occurs when there is a fallacy of reasoning. i.e. In python, typing if x < 0 and x > 5. Since a value can't be less than 0 and greater than 5, a logical error will occur.
nothing, you still become intoxicated. this is a fallacy that a chemical reaction occurs
Post hoc fallacy is simply that if an event A occurs,then an event B occurs. concluding that B occurred because of A is called post hoc fallacy. eg- i stood up in the crowd .everyone else stood up too. concluding that all stood because of me is post hoc fallacy. fallacy of composition is that we assume what is true for a part will also be true for the whole . eg- let's say prices of crops are high. It might be profitable for one farmer to increase the amount of crops he is selling. However, if all farmers where to sell more crops, there would be a flood of crops in the market and prices would go down, harming farmers overall.
One common logical fallacy is captured in the phrase, "after this, because of this": an event that occurs after another event is (fallaciously) considered to be caused by the prior event. Another common logical fallacy is a false appeal to an authority: one claims that "x" must be true because an authority states that it is true.
The lack of proportion fallacy occurs when the significance of a situation is exaggerated or minimized, leading to a faulty conclusion. This fallacy is characterized by the failure to appropriately weigh different elements in a situation, resulting in an argument that is not logically sound. It is important to consider the relative importance of different factors when making judgments or drawing conclusions.
