"Science is
a systematic discipline
that builds and
organises knowledge in the form of
testable hypotheses and predictions about
the universe. Modern
science is typically divided into
two or three major branches: the natural
sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry,
and biology),
which study the physical
world;
and the social
sciences (e.g., economics, psychology,
and sociology),
which study individuals and
societies. Applied
sciences are
disciplines that use scientific
knowledge for practical purposes,
such as engineering and medicine. While
sometimes referred to as the formal
sciences,
the study of logic, mathematics,
and theoretical
computer science (which
study formal
systems governed
by axioms and
rules) are
typically regarded as separate
because they rely on deductive
reasoning instead
of the scientific
method or empirical
evidence as
their main methodology." Source
