Homonym: value_if_true (Utilitarianism)
In programming and spreadsheet applications, "value_if_true" is a term used in conditional statements, such as the IF function. It specifies the result or output that should be returned when a given condition evaluates to true. For example, in a formula like =IF(A1 > 10, "Yes", "No"), "Yes" is the "value_if_true" that appears if the condition (A1 being greater than 10) is met.
This concept is essential for decision-making processes in coding and data analysis. By defining what happens when a condition is true, users can create dynamic and responsive applications or spreadsheets that adapt based on the data input.
