Inference refers to the process of drawing a conclusion or making an educated guess based on the available evidence or information. It often involves going beyond the explicit information provided and using reasoning to arrive at a conclusion.
### Example of Inference:
**Situation:**
Imagine you walk into a room and see a wet floor, an open window, and a weather report on the table indicating it rained earlier in the day.
**Inference:**
Based on this information, you might infer that the rain caused the floor to become wet, and someone opened the window to let in fresh air after the rain.
Your inference connects the dots between the available evidence (wet floor, open window, rain) to form a logical conclusion.
