Decision Table

Decision Table

Decision tables are a precise yet compact way to model complicated logic.

Decision tables, like flowcharts and if-then-else and switch-case statements, associate conditions with actions to perform, but in many cases do so in a more elegant way.

In the 1960s and 1970s a range of "decision table based" languages such as Filetab were popular for business programming.

Famous quotes containing the words decision and/or table:

    Moral choices do not depend on personal preference and private decision but on right reason and, I would add, divine order.

    And the table that holds a platter of pears,
    Vermilion smeared over green, arranged for show.
