Constraints are like the rules in a game. Think about playing a board game with your friends. You can’t just move your pieces anywhere you want. You have to follow the rules, like moving only a certain number of spaces. These rules help everyone play fair and have fun. So, a constraint is like a rule that tells you what you can or can’t do.
Imagine you’re building a sandcastle at the beach. You have a bucket and a shovel, but you can only use the sand that’s near you. You can’t go too far to get more sand because your parents said to stay close. The area where you can get sand is your constraint. It helps you know where you can work and where you can’t.
Think of a rubber band. When you stretch it, there’s a limit to how far it can go before it snaps back. That limit is a constraint. It tells you how far the rubber band can stretch safely. Just like the rubber band, constraints help keep things in control and make sure nothing goes wrong.
