Definition of consistency

according to Chat GPT- “Consistency refers to the quality or state of being in agreement or harmony with oneself, with others, or with a particular standard or set of principles. It implies that something is reliable, stable, and predictable, and that it does not contradict itself or violate any established rules or norms.”
