As opposed to conditional flag-centric code, a state machine diagram presents a very clear view of the design, and so provides a good example to students. As opposed to conditional flag-centric code, ...

Imagine a robot with an all-around bump sensor. The response to the bump sensor activating depends on the previous state of the robot. If it had been going forward, a bump will send it backwards and ...

State machines are a foundation of digital design. Eventually we all reach the point where we need to control our digital algorithm, and we almost always turn to a state machine to do the job. State ...

In my previous article, I highlighted the importance of state machine thinking in creating robust and dependable systems. Now, let's delve deeper into the mathematical underpinnings of converting ...
