A more useful rule, to fetch the patient's age, would be:

Code Block
languagejava
return new Result(context.getPatient(patientId).getAge(context.indexDate))

Here's a verbose version of that same age logic

Code Block
languagegroovy
/*
 * In order to add as little overhead as possible, allowing rules to be run 
run * relatively efficiently on very large
 * cohorts, the rule framework does not 
 not* automatically provide us with a Patient object, but just a patientId.
 * This line fetches that Patient object. (It actually fetches all patientspatients 
 * in the cohort the rule is being evaluated
 * on.)
 */
def patient = context.getPatient(patientId)

/*
 * We want this rule to work correctly if you evaluate it as-of some otherother 
 * date. So we fetch the index date from
 * the LogicContext. "context.indexDate" 
 * is groovy shorthand for "context.getIndexDate()"
 */
def age = patient.getAge(context.indexDate)

/*
 * We need to wrap our returned value in a logic Result.
 */
return new Result(age)
