Two Types of Observations
Qualitative: Based on non-numerical observations (colour, state, shape)

Observations should be as accurate as possible.
Observations should be concise
An outlier is an irregular result. Anomalies should not be ignored. There must be a logical explanation for an anomalous event. Investigating an anomaly often increases our knowledge and adds to our understanding of nature.
