What was the goal of scientific method developed by bacon and descartes?

* Observation: Gather data about the world around you.

* Hypothesis: Form a tentative explanation for the observations.

* Experimentation: Test the hypothesis by conducting experiments.

* Conclusion: Draw conclusions about the hypothesis based on the results of the experiments.

Descartes' Method of Doubt

* Doubt everything you believe to be true.

* Look for evidence to support your beliefs.

* Reject any beliefs that are not supported by evidence.

* Accept only beliefs that are based on clear and distinct ideas.

The goal of both Bacon's and Descartes' scientific methods was to arrive at true knowledge about the world. Bacon believed that this could be done by carefully observing the world and conducting experiments, while Descartes believed that it could be done by doubting everything and only accepting beliefs that are supported by clear and distinct ideas. Both methods have been used to make significant progress in our understanding of the world.
