For example, say you have numeric model inventory fields of materiality
and complexity
, where a larger value indicates a lower risk:
def formula(params):
# High Risk: If materiality is high risk, return high risk regardless of complexity
if params.materiality == "High Risk":
return "High Risk"
# Medium Risk: If materiality is low risk but complexity is high risk, return medium risk
if params.materiality == "Low Risk" and params.complexity == "High Risk":
return "Medium Risk"
# Low Risk: Both materiality and complexity are low risk
return "Low Risk"
