Preceded and Followed Condition Based Questions Group
A preceded condition is a condition that must be met before another condition can be evaluated. A followed condition is a condition that must be met after the first condition has been met.
Preceded condition
If the preceded condition is true, then the followed condition can be evaluated. For example, if the condition "x > 10" is a preceded condition and the condition "x + 2 > 15" is a followed condition, then the statement "x + 2 > 15" will be true.
Followed condition
If the followed condition is true, then the preceded condition can be evaluated. For example, if the condition "x > 10" is a preceded condition and the condition "x - 5 = 10" is a followed condition, then the statement "x > 10" will be true.
Examples
Precondition: x > 5
Followed condition: x + 2 > 10
Additional notes
Preceded conditions must always be evaluated before followed conditions.
Preceded conditions can be used to create complex conditional statements.
Followed conditions can be used to create conditional statements that are not equivalent to preceded conditions
