Logic Statements

conclusions from the results of the experiments

Skill comes in stating no more than the experiment has proved.

observed results of the experiments
predicted results of experiments

An experiment never fails solely because it fails to achieve predicted results. An experiment is a failure only when it also fails to adequately test the hypothesis in question; when the data it produces don't prove anything one way or the other.

experiments designed to test each hypothesis

An experiment is a failure only when it also fails to adequately test the hypothesis in

You think of as many hypotheses as you can, then you design experiments to test them to see which are true and which are false.
