[rules-users] Negating a result

Well the thing is, it's not just one condition - it's the combination of all
my rule's conditions. 
And my rules have about 7 conditions, none of which are mandatory. 

And that is actually the source of all my problems: that the conditions are
optional.

If I set up a few logical relationships, there is nothing specific I am
testing on, which gives a single expression I can test in a function.  In
procedural programming, I check each of the 7 conditions optionally, and
then I apply my ternary operator to the final result.  But here I can't do
that, because the condition is made up of all the little conditions that may
or may not be applicable.



PS. 
Ok, so I see from the other thread that a rule template is meant to place
whatever text you give it, like a text pre-processor.  I'll see if that is
correct, thanks.  I thought it might not be, because if you provide a blank
cell, it deletes your entire condition, instead of providing a "" or a null,
like you'd expect from a text pre-processor.
