Define the Problem
Must know exactly what the problem is you are trying to solve

For Example:How do I get down???

Collect Background Information
What do I know? What do I need to know?

Formulate A Hypothesis
A possible solution to the problem Simple is usually better Can be a guess

Confucius Says:
There are two excellent theories for arguing with women.
Neither one works!!

Theory
Explanation of related observations Verified by multiple researchers Proven within reasonable doubt over a period of
time Typically answers the question: Why? And can
be fairly complex.

Law
Based on hypothesis that can be tested Proven to be true repeatedly over a period of time Can normally be explained in a mathematical
formula Typically answers the question: How? And is
usually not very complex.
