Rule dependency in chaining and looping

This section explores how Corticon determines the sequencing of rules, and looping, which involves controls you can set over the revisiting, re-evaluating, and possible re-firing of rules.

What is rule dependency?

Dependencies between rules exist when a conditional expression of one rule evaluates data produced by the action of another rule. The second rule is said to be dependent on the first.
