Rule Frequency

The Frequency row appears under the Action section. The logic engineer can optionally assign for each rule an estimate of how often it might be invoked. A frequency number can be up to three digits. Very often, the frequency number is treated as a percentage although LogicGem does not check if all the frequency numbers add up to 100%. Obviously, the frequency number should be greater than zero, otherwise the rule is useless. The frequency row entries enable the LogicGem compiler to do some optimizations relative to execution speed of the code structure produced.

To enter a frequency numbers for rules, follow the process below:
  1. Click the mouse in the frequency row under a desired rule.
  2. Enter a frequency number in the box provided.
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to enter each frequency as desired (not all rules are required to have a frequency number).
