Description

Builds expert-system and rule-based programs with forward chaining plus procedural and object-oriented features. It is useful for learning rule engines, modeling decision logic, or maintaining software built on CLIPS.

Rule systems can make decisions that are hard to audit if rules are poorly organized. Test rule sets with clear examples before using them in real workflows.
