Concept of Classification

Concept: Classification in reasoning can be defined as simply categorising and putting things into groups or clusters based on their commonness. It’s like organising items, people, ideas, or facts into different categories that share similar qualities.

Main Ideas:

1. Grouping: You look at things and group them based on similar features.
2. Common Traits: These groups are made up of things that have the same qualities.
3. Makes Things Clearer: By sorting things into groups, it’s easier to understand and analyze them.

Example:

• Animals: We can group them as mammals, birds, reptiles, etc., based on their shared features.
• Fruits: You can group them into citrus fruits like oranges or non-citrus fruits like apples.
