A new framework for distinguishing between laws and accidental generalizations is introduced, building on classical theories. This innovative approach demonstrates that any explanation of a contingent generalization confirms its non-accidental nature. The second part delves deeper into the implications of this distinction, exploring its impact on philosophical discussions surrounding laws of nature and the foundations of scientific inquiry.
