IF-THEN rules

IF-THEN rules are a way to make decisions based on specific conditions. They consist of two parts: the "IF" part describes a situation or condition, and the "THEN" part describes the action or outcome if that condition is true. For example, "IF it is raining, THEN carry an umbrella." These rules help systems or people systematically evaluate situations and determine appropriate responses, making complex decision-making more organized and consistent. They are commonly used in expert systems, automation, and decision trees to model logical reasoning.
