Summary

Simple Decision Table Processor

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_table

This function find and return field 'return' from Decision Table,

when all operands in row by 'fields' are True.

Example:

This example show use case off Traffic lights decisions.

Decision Table:

red	yellow	green	return
==on	==off	==off	stop
==on	==on	==off	ready
==off	==off	==on	go
==off	==on	==off	break
==off	==off	==off	off
