Confirmation bias is the situation or character of a people where he interprets or recall information in his memory that only supports his already existing beliefs or hypothesis. These people tend to interpret evidence in a biased way or even recall old memory by selectively picking them.

I believe that every person in their life have confronted the concept of confirmation bias. In my daily day, I come across with some examples of confirmation bias.
