A deductive argument is an argument that is intended by the arguer to be deductively valid,that is,to provide a guarantee of the truth of the conclusion provided that the argument's premises are true.
An inductive argument is an argument that is intended by the arguer to be strong enough that, if the premises were to be true,then it would be unlikely that the conclusion is false.

The main difference between inductive and deductive reasoning is that inductive reasoning aims at developing a theory while deductive reasoning aims at testing an existing theory. Inductive reasoning moves from specific observations to broad generalizations, and deductive reasoning the other way around.
