Physical evidence (also called real evidence or material evidence) is any material object that plays some role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced as evidence in a judicial proceeding (such as a trial) to prove a fact in issue based on the object’s physical characteristics.

Carl Sagan criticized such “impatience with ambiguity” with cosmologist Martin Rees’ maxim, “Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence”.

Proving a negative or negative proof may refer to: Proving a negative, in the philosophic burden of proof. Evidence of absence in general, such as evidence that there is no milk in a certain bowl. Modus tollens, a logical proof. Proof of impossibility, mathematics.

Scientific evidence is evidence that serves to either support or counter a scientific theory or hypothesis. Such evidence is expected to be empirical evidence and interpretable in accordance with scientific method.

Empirical evidence is information acquired by observation or experimentation and presented in the form of recorded data, which may be the subject of analysis (e.g. by scientists). In science, empirical evidence is required for a hypothesis to gain acceptance in the scientific community.

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not “guesses” but reliable accounts of the real world.

A scientific theory is not the end result of the scientific method; theories can be proven or rejected, just like hypotheses. Theories can be improved or modified as more information is gathered so that the accuracy of the prediction becomes greater over time.

Communication theory is a field of information theory and mathematics that studies the technical process of information, as well as a field of psychology, sociology, semiotics and anthropology studying interpersonal communication and intrapersonal communication.

Political communication(s) is a subfield of communication and political science that is concerned with how information spreads and influences politics and policy makers, the news media and citizens. The media acts as bridge between government and public.

In communication studies or media studies, mediatization (variously also called medialization or even mediation) is a theory that argues that the media shapes and frames the processes and discourse (conversation) of political communication as well as the society in which that communication takes place.

The Terai or Tarai is a lowland region in northern India and southern Nepal that lies south of the outer foothills of the Himalayas, the Sivalik Hills, and north of the Indo-Gangetic Plain. This lowland belt is characterised by tall grasslands, scrub savannah, sal forests and clay rich swamps.

Concepts are defined as abstract ideas or general notions that occur in the mind, in speech, or in thought. They are understood to be the fundamental building blocks of thoughts and beliefs. Concepts as mental representations, where concepts are entities that exist in the mind (mental objects)

A sociological concept is a mental construct that represents some part of the world in a simplified form. An example of a mental construct is the idea of class, or the distinguishing of two groups based on their income, culture, power, or some other defining characteristic(s).

Conceptual design is an early phase of the design process, in which the broad outlines of function and form of something are articulated. It includes the design of interactions, experiences, processes, and strategies. Common artifacts of conceptual design are concept sketches and models.

1a : artistic, stylized, or elegant handwriting or lettering. b : the art of producing such writing. 2 : penmanship. 3 : an ornamental line in drawing or painting.

A prototype is an early sample, model, or release of a product built to test a concept or process. It is a term used in a variety of contexts, including semantics, design, electronics, and software programming. A prototype is generally used to evaluate a new design to enhance precision by system analysts and users.

void Sum( int, int ); First of all, function prototypes include the function signature, the name of the function, return type and access specifier. The function signature determines the number of parameters and their types. In the above example, the return type is “void”.

Software prototyping

Class-based programming, or more commonly class-orientation, is a style of object-oriented programming (OOP) in which inheritance occurs via defining classes of objects, instead of inheritance occurring via the objects alone (compare prototype-based programming).
