What's the difference between statistics and logic?

They may have equivalences, but they're separate forms of mathematics. I'd say the same applies to different algorithms or models of computation, such as neural nets.




Can you do with without resorting to analogy? Anyone can take two things and say they're different and then say that's two other things that are different. But how?


Sure. To be clear I’m not saying I think they are the same thing.

I don’t have the language to explain the difference in a manner I find sufficiently precise. I was hoping others might.
