What is reasoning and what is knowledge?
Knowledge is direct and fast, such as you know 1+1=2
Reasoning is logic, and in a way as sub-knowledge, where there is a procedure you go through to get the answer such as, when given 489765*2354=?, most likely you will need to use a calculator instead of directly giving answer such as 1+1=2
My friend, Tan Khai Phin recently bought some new stuff to be added on his computer, a new motherboard and the very hot HD4870. While this is not the main point in this entry, what important is the knowledge and reasoning in his mindset. For months after teaching him about the RTS game, Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, I find that his reasoning out-reasoned his knowledge, for one can convert reasoning to gain knowledge by practical+understanding. That is why, he loses easy battle where he should have won. In such RTS, a decent player with knowledge will know on the spot like 1+1=2 what to do to counter or when to attack, while a decent player like my friend with good reasoning will think, I must build this and that to counter that, but then he will think is that a good counter? Or he will ask himself, if I attack now, what if the enemy has too much?
So reasoning and knowledge... It existed and affected much roles in life
