So does an 'if' statement sort of flip the order of the conditional? How does this work for the Kumar example:

"students are cited as late only if they arrive 5+ minutes past last ring"

Let's say that being cited late = A

Being 5+ mins late = B

An 'only if' statement looks like A --> B

An 'if' statement would look like B --> A

It seems intuitive to read a conditional from left to right as English is read, so does an 'if' statement flip the order?
