Simple State Machine Template Documentation

Publish Date: Jul 09, 2013

Overview

The Simple State Machine template facilitates defining the execution sequence for sections of code. This particular implementation
often is referred to as a Moore machine, which determines the next state based on decisions made in the current state. The
design of this template makes it easy to insert new sections of code, remove sections of code, or change the order in which
sections execute all without making major modifications to the structure of the application.
