OR: SOURCE OF LOGICAL COMPLEXITY
The connector OR
is like a branching intersection in a scenario where a choice in
one’s line of thought must be made. The words and phrases listed
below act like ORs. They all create logical complexity, particularly
when they are chained together in a series. In this case, our scenario
takes us through decision after decision after decision. This is the
kind of logical complexity that FLIPP Explainers make clear. They
picture, without words, the patterns of intersections for us. IFs also signal a split
of a path into two or more branches. Users are not limited to
binary choices.
