What is Feedback (OFB)?

Feedback (OFB) is when something you do affects how it works, kind of like when you play on a trampoline and bounce higher every time.

Imagine you're riding your bike, and you have a friend holding a bicycle pump. Every time you pedal fast, they push more air into the tire, making it easier to go faster. That’s feedback, your speed affects how much help you get, which in turn makes you go even faster.

Think of feedback like a conversation between two friends. One says something, and the other responds, then the first one reacts again based on that response. It keeps going back and forth, just like when you're playing tag and keep running faster every time someone chases you!

In real life, this can be used to make things smarter or more efficient, like how your phone gets better at understanding what you say over time.

Feedback helps things adapt. If you're using a thermostat in your house, it checks the temperature and turns the heater on or off. That’s feedback, it keeps adjusting based on what's happening around it, just like you adjust your bike speed when you feel tired.
