CHANGE

Change

Change is a conversion, transformation or movement from one form, state or value to another.

Inquiry into the concept of change involves understanding and evaluating causes, processes and consequences.

In sciences, change is viewed as the difference in a system’s state when observed at different times. This change could be qualitative (such as differences in structure, behaviour, or level) or quantitative (such as a numerical variable or a rate).

Change can be irreversible, reversible or self-perpetuating.
