Writing rules

Become familiar with the principles of safe writing rules as suggested by the Institute of Safe Medication Practice... 

Rules are generally implemented in something called a rules engine, which provides a basic framework for writing rules and then for running them in the manner described above. 

Although there is no fixed set of writing rules to be followed like a cookbook recipe or an experimental procedure, some guidelines can be helpful. Start by considering the questions in Box 3-1 answering these questions will clarify your goals and make it easier to write the manuscript with the proper amount of detail. It will also make it easier for the book or journal editor to determine the... 

Formal rules, known as selection rules, may be used to decide whether or not an electric dipole transition between two states may take place. Perhaps the most important is the rule governing spin multiplicity spin must not change during an electronic transition. The usual way to write rules of this kind is... 

And now that it is, we can reveal that this reaction DOES NOT HAPPEN - calciumn phosphate is insoluble (which is just as well, since large amounts of it are in your bones and teeth). As soon as any particles of calcium carbonate react with phosphoric acid, the reaction stops because the particles are coated with insoluble calcium phosphate. So now we can write Rule 8 (see start of Section 4.2.4 on page 142) ...

Thus, the writing rules of symbols for the space groups claims the following conventions ... 

Recognition of structural features of compounds from their IR spectra using a combination of an expert system and a neural network has been described by Ricard et al. The neural network can be used in two different ways. In the first case, the trained neural network (see Neural Networks in Chemistry) operates directly and simultaneously with the expert system. The query IR spectrum is preprocessed by the neural network by taking decisions concerning the presence and the absence of functional groups. This information is used by the expert system. In a second case, the neural network can be used to write rules for the expert system.
