Descartes wrote that the basis of the Scientific Method came to him in dreams he had on November 10, 1619.

 

The four main ideas for scientific progress are:

1

Never accept anything as true until all reasons for doubt can be ruled out.

2

Divide problems into as many parts as possible and necessary to provide an adequate solution >>>

3

Thoughts should be ordered, starting with the simplest and easiest to know, ascending little by little, and, step by step, to more complex knowledge.

4

Make enumerations so complete, and reviews so general, that nothing is omitted.

 

One of Descartes' main lines of thought is skepticism –
everything should be doubted until it could be proved.
