1. **Logical reasoning ** is the process of using a rational, systematic series of steps based on sound mathematical procedures and given statements to arrive at a conclusion. 2. a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer. 3. You must make a plan first, next you must gather your ingredients or get everything you need to do it, finally you must do it. 4. a particular order in which related events, movements, or things follow each other. 5. a formal request to an authority for something. you click edit, next you click the little "link" button on your wiki, and click create

1. give an authoritative order. 2. Select the buttons needed to make the kitty move, like turn, move, face this way. 3.
