1. There are 7 types of CORVID variables; only three types of these variables were discussed. State and describe the other four types of variables briefly.
1-static list predefined list of values 2-dynamic list list of values set at run time
Multiple choice lists with the values defined dynamically during runtime. The values may come from external source such as spreadsheets or be set by the logic of the system. Examples: selection of options that change frequently And are not known at time of system development

3-Numeric value 4-String value

String value that can hold any text string. Examples: name social security number

5-data value
A data value that can be used in comparison (future/past,etc).tests examples birth dates, option maturity date.

6-collection value is a group of items added dynamically

A list of string as values. The list is built up during a run and is not asked of the system user. Various operators allow you to add, remove and test items in the list. Any string or variable can be added to the collection. Example: products, configuration, overall comments, selections from a database.

7-confidence value will be a confidence factor

2. CORVID provides a wide range of other mathematical approaches (other than adding/subtracting them) to combining the individual values assigned to Confidence Variables. State and describe the other four types of variables briefly.
1-sum 2-average 3-independent probability 4-dependent probability

3. For your mini-project application, you are asked to report what follows:
i. Problem Description (Describe the problem in details). ii. Put the problem in the form of IF/THEN rules (state the fact and the corresponding IF/THEN rule). iii. Define the variables of your system. iv. State the rules again using the new variables.

Answer
i. ii. Choosing the best loader for the user as it varies for the user request If it used in construction category , then very long lever is used If it used to carry very heavy loads, then high power capacity loaders to be used If cost reduction is needed, then moderate power capacity is used or getting a used one If it is used in limited space site, then use smaller loaders If is used at sea construction site, then use one with high rust resistivity If is used at high temperature conditions like desert, then use one with higher cooling system Types of variables: ( dynamic list, data value, static lists and string value ) Like: Loader Capacity, Cost Reduction, Lever Dimensions, Maximum Height and working conditions
