O.51

Inductive Argumentation has two Orders, the Crude & the Gradual, the former incorrectly described by Bacon as "inductio illa quae procedit per enumerationem singulicem, the point of which is the complete absence from all established experience of an instantia against it. Gradual Induction makes a new approximation with each new instance to the degree of truth of the hypothesis. It has two Families, the Qualitative and the Quantitative, the latter being either of the Measuring or of the Counting genus.
