Is all information in ForeTell numeric?
No. ForeTell provides a variety of data types to capture decision inputs in an appropriate (and intuitive) form: captures information using a rich variety of data types as appropriate, including free text, symbolic or boolean (true/false) values, lists and tables. Symbols can model categories (e.g., Male vs. Female, Small/Medium/Large), or ranges, such as demographic intervals (e.g., 0-1 years old, 1-10, 11-20,… 80+). You can also annotate any scenario value with “metadata” to document your degree of certainty, comments, ToDos, and sources for that data. These notes help you maintain scenarios and share them with other users.
