	Charming Python: Generator-based state machines
		In the model, one or more states are defined as end states, and exactly one state is defined as a start state (calls to the class methods configure this).
		function also accepts a "start state" as an argument, although perhaps a default value could be selected automatically if that was desired.
		Each line of the results represents flow spent in one particular state handler or generator; the flow context is announced at the beginning of the line.

	State Space Example #1
		The state space model for an nth-order system is a set of n 1st-order differential equations, called the state equations, and a set of p algebraic equations, called the output equations.
		The second form of the transfer function makes use of the fact that the inverse of a matrix can be written as the adjoint of the matrix divided by the determinant of the matrix.
		Obviously, the mode that is missing from the poles of the transfer function is the one which was cancelled by a zero in the original form of the transfer function.

		A state function is a function depending only on the initial and final state of the system and not on the path between them.
		The enthalpy function for the elements in their natural state (Fe(s) for example) are assigned the value zero.
		Measurements of entropy of elements and compounds, referred to a final state of 1 atm pressure and 298 K temperature, allows lists to be made of this thermodynamic function.

		State code execution doesn?t continue until you go to a new state, or go to a new label within the current state.
		When you have a function that is implemented globally, in one or more states, and in one or more parent classes, you need to understand which version of the function will be called in a given context.
		If the object is in a state, and an implementation of the function exists somewhere in that state (either in the actor?s class or in some parent class), the most-derived state version of the function is called.

		State machines represent some of the most interesting classes of digital circuits, microprocessors are fundamentally state-machine based, many of the gadgets we interact with in everyday life have state machine behavior, microwave ovens, wash machines, vending machines, automatic transmissions, all can be modeled at some level using state machines.
		We are going to develop a general model for a state machine, a notation for describing state machines, and a design methodology.

	Dr. Dobb's \| State Machine Design in C++ \| April 15, 2003
		Every state machine has the concept of a "current state." This is the state the state machine currently occupies.
		At the end of the state function, a check is performed to determine whether an internal event was generated.
		After the state function has a chance to execute, it deletes the event data, if any, before checking to see if any internal events were generated.

	11 Finite State (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
		The functions thus implemented are used as inputs to a bank of D flip-flops, one per bit in the state encoding.
		Fortunately, the output function is simply a combinational function of the state (in the case of a classifier or acceptor) or of the state and input (in the case of a transducer).
		Not only is the number of states too big to fit in the memory of a computer that would be usable as a tool for analyzing such finite-state machines, it is also impossible for a human to understand the workings of a machine based on explicit representation of its states.

	State-based safety analysis
		A state is a "state of affairs", the important properties of the system at one point in time.
		The allowed states can be represented as restrictions on the values of the variables, and behavior can be represented by changes in the values of the variables.
		We can describe a state by writing a boolean function that returns true when the system is in that state (we can use the name of the function as the name of the state).

	Control Tutorials for Matlab
		A dynamic system is most commonly described in one of three ways: by a set of state-space equations and the corresponding matrices, by a transfer function with the numerator and denominator polynomials, or by a list of poles and zeros and the associated gain.
		This model is basically the same as the transfer function model, except that the polynomials have been factored so the poles are all in the denominator and the zeros are in the numerator.
		Remember that for a proper transfer function, the number of poles n is greater than or equal to the number of zeros m.

	CTMS: Conversions Extra
		System variab are used independently of the original system notation, and it is easy to both store a system variable from any representation and to extract any of the three system representations from a system variable.
		The 'v' causes the function to return a vectorized version of the zeros and poles, which is useful for SISO systems.
		You should always check your transfer function, and if numbers that are 0.0000 show up that are supposed to be zero, rewrite the numerator into M

	Dr. Dobb's \| Hierarchical State Machine Design in C++ \| November 1, 2005
		And since states are classes, they can store their own mini-states; for instance, how many times has this state been entered, how long on average has the system spent in this state, and so on.
		The STATE class passed as the template parameter is expected to implement on_enter() and on_exit() functions that can be used to initialize the hierarchy.
		The hierarchy in the state machine is achieved by using C++ inheritance and polymorphism to handle the same event differently based on the context (or state) of the system.

	Phantasmal Operation: User States
		Another way to implement a state machine is to use a function as a state instead of a costant.
		Its switch_to() function is called when the state becomes active — notice that it sends the prompt string to the user.
		The to_user() function is like from_user(), but is called with strings being sent to the user from the MUD rather than strings typed by the user and meant for the MUD.

	8.1 Value Prediction with Function Approximation
		Consequently, when a single state is backed up, the change generalizes from that state to affect the values of many other states.
		Because a backup is generated for each state encountered in the experience, the training examples available are naturally distributed according to the on-policy distribution.
		Reaching this goal is sometimes possible for simple function approximators such as linear ones, but is rarely possible for complex function approximators such as artificial neural networks and decision trees.

		Because success or failure could happen quite some time after authentication was requested—remote host might be busy or even down—and during this time the browser cannot just freeze there for the sake of sequentiality, it has a user to cater to.

	State Machines: Cooperative Mini-kernels with Yielding
		We will also need to deal with function arguments which is going to be tricky due to the fact that arguments are within the stack frame and, as we’ve already pointed out, we can’t expect stack variables to be persistent across a YIELD so we can’t expect them to be persistent across a CALL either.
		The jump at the beginning of the function may skip over the initialization of certain variables, especially those that are aliased into registers.
		This implies that code in such state machines can never be optimized which is a major drawback, although in many cases such state machines are not speed critical.
