Euler's prime generator makes a statement about pure mathematics, not nature, yet it is testable and falsifiable in a scientific way. The Monty Hall Problem Monty Hall This is a problem that only appears to be connected to nature — it is actually an example of Platonic mathematics. The ...
While the specific scientific character of these indi- vidual paradigms vary in a number of respects,1 they nevertheless share some basic 1 The main one being that individual inflationary models are currently empirically testable, whereas models of the others are scarcely so, if at all. * ...
Let us recall the principle of the Mermin and Peres11,12 operator-based proofs of quantum contextuality. Consider the configuration of two-qubit observables depicted in Fig. 1 and known as a Peres–Mermin magic square. Figure 1 The Peres–Mermin magic square: all two-qubit observables on the...
Write testable code: Good unit tests are only possible if the code you are testing is testable. To make code testable, it should be modular, loosely coupled, and follow the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP). Create a separate test target: A separate test target should contain your test ...
Yet once the focus is put on the argumentative use of cases in thought experiments intended as “alethic refuters” of modally immodest claims, a case can be made about the method of cases being a method. The first of these claims expresses an attestable fact of general scientific practice...
What is a controlled double-blind clinical scientific study? Clinical Trials: A clinical trial is a type of experiment used to assess the efficacy and safety of a treatment, drug or therapeutic intervention by assessing the predetermined outcomes in a group of participants who receive the test tre...
The purpose of this paper is to show that all the jargons and issues cited above are mere manifestations of a new fundamental principle called local activity, which is mathematically precise and testable. The local activity theorem provides the quantitative characterization of Prigogine's "instability...
~suggesting the geophysical definition is just a bunch of wacko different things lumped together. What scientific principle is delineated by "wacko different"? ~you repeatedly claim the greatness of the IAU system even though you have no response to the items listed above - as if saying it make...
Is this observation testable ? I caught four fish at the seven o'clock in the morning but didn't catch any at noon. The Scientific Method In order to answer question in science and in every day life, the scientific method is employed. The method...
