The term ‘cause and effect’ was first coined by Aristotle in his book ‘The Nicomachean Ethics’ in the 4th century BC. The cause and effect relationship between two events can be expressed mathematically using Bayes' theorem. Cause and effect can also be expressed in a narrative form, such as a story or poem, where each event is expressed as a description of a character's experience.
