Inductive logic: An example of inductive logic is that all animals I have seen are dangerous therefore all animals are dangerous.
Deductive logic: An example of deductive logic is is the statement that everything that goes up must come down. Therefore, if you kick the ball up, it must come down.
The difference between the two is that generally inductive reasoning moves from specific to general and deductive reasoning; the opposite.
All animals I have ever seen (specific) > All animals (general)
Everything that goes up must come down (general) > If you kick the ball up it must come down (specific)
