There are two parts that are considered the basis of Occam's razor, and they were originally written in Latin:

 

The Principle of Plurality - Plurality should not be posited without necessity

The Principle of Parsimony - It is pointless to do with more what is done with less

Taken together, they represent the basis of humanity's investigation into the universe, and the way we see our environment is largely based upon Occam's razor.

The simplest explanation is usually the right one. Detectives use it to deduce who's the likeliest suspect in a murder case – you know, the butler did it. Doctors ­use it to determine the illness behind a set of symptoms.

 

This line of reasoning is called Occam's razor
