Categorical Reasoning is when you take two bits of information and make it into a whole third bit of information. Ex.:
- All cats are funny when playing with feathers.
- Some cats are large.
- Therefore, some large things are funny when playing with feathers.
See? You got two pieces of information, then you got a third piece of information! :)
However, there is something called hypothetical reasoning, and that's when you only affirm or deny something. So don't get those two things mixed up! :)
