analytic
Breaking things down
Analytic describes an approach that breaks things into component parts to understand them.
An analytic mind examines problems systematically.
In philosophy, analytic statements are true by definition—All bachelors are unmarried requires no investigation.
Analytic is interchangeable with analytical in most contexts, though analytic dominates in technical fields: analytic geometry, analytic philosophy.
