Discussion questions week 9: #1 Cause & Effect

I found the cause and effect online reading quite helpful for a multitude of reasons, foremost being its broad coverage of cause and effect followed by an in depth summary of different portions of this topic. From reading the Epstein text I was well aware what cause and effect reasoning was, but the website breaks the subject down in layman's terms which helped me vastly in understanding the specifics of the relationship between cause and effect. Specifically the sections concerning casual arguments were very helpful as I did not understand them very well going into this assignment, and the fact that there were multiple explanations for the different nuances of casual arguments really helped me. In addition to the reading, the exercises provided were very helpful especially if you struggled. The absolute most helpful part of this assignment was definitely the explanations given for incorrect answers in the exercises as the few things I still did not understand completely had complete, easy to understand explanations for why I had made mistakes within the exercise.
