A true necessary condition in a conditional statement makes the statement true (see  truth table  immediately below). In formal terms, a consequent N is a necessary condition for an antecedent S, in the conditional statement,  N if S ,  N is implied by S , or N S. In common words, we would also say . N is weaker than S  or  S cannot occur without N . For example, it is necessary to be Named, to be called Socrates. A true sufficient condition in a conditional statement ties the statement's truth to its consequent. In formal terms, an antecedent S is a sufficient condition for a consequent N, in the conditional statement, if S, then N ,  S implies N , or S N.

In some countries, teaching young people of school age may be carried out in an informal setting, such as within the family, (homeschooling) rather than in a formal setting such as a school or college.
