Nondeterminism

Nondeterminism refers to situations where an outcome can follow multiple possible paths or decisions, without a specific rule determining which one will occur. Imagine choosing a route without knowing in advance which path will lead you to the destination; all options are available, and the actual result depends on chance or internal choices. In computing, nondeterministic processes can produce different results each time, even given the same starting conditions. This concept helps model systems where outcomes aren't strictly predetermined, allowing for flexibility, exploration of multiple possibilities, or understanding behaviors that depend on unpredictable factors.
