Assuming that
Would anybody be kind to help me understand usage of "Assuming that.."?
Can I categorize "Assuming that..." into the same group of "Given that...", "Granted that...",
"Provided that.." in terms of its usage?
Can they all be used as " If clause"?
Do I understand it right?
As far as my reading articles are concerned, I see "Given that..." once a while,
but seldom do I come across "Assuming that..."
How is the popularity on a daily basis among them different?
Thanks for reading.

- Yes, both assuming that and provided that can be replaced by a conditonal (if) sentence.
