Date neighbourhood of a file

This page is generated from the code and must not be edited by hand.

A date in a file’s name, or else in the nearest folder name above it, says roughly when it belongs, never exactly when it was made; two dates make a span.

date_neighbourhood_of_a_file version 1

• Kind of rule: What files are (classifies). Says what a file or a folder is, by placing it in a class.

• What it concludes: a class

• Reasoning: defeasible. A conclusion is usually right, and is retracted when a rule it names concludes against it.

• What it reads: one file at a time

Is it available in this version?

Yes. The engine runs it.

What would defeat it

What this rule concludes about something is withdrawn when any of these rules concludes about the same thing:

• installed_software_in_folder: A folder is recognized as an installed program, such as a copy of Fiji or a Python environment, from the parts it holds, a name ending .app, its program-style subfolders or a majority of program files; its files are still indexed and read, and rules about experiments leave them alone.
