  1. Examples of Finite State Machines [closed] - Software Engineering …

    I'm looking for good examples of finite state machines; language isn't particularly important, just good examples. Code implementations are useful (generalized pseudo-code), but it's also very use...

  2. So what exactly is a final state of a finite state machine?

    Nov 28, 2017 · From a practical point, for example, you might have a finite state machine that recognizes keywords, from an input stream of characters. The final state would tell you whether a …

  3. How is a state machine different from any other computer program?

    Jun 28, 2015 · If you want to be really pedantic, every computer program is a Finite State Machine, because even if you convert all matter in the entire universe into a computer, it will still only have …

  4. How to recover from finite-state-machine breakdown?

    By finite state machine I mean this > I have a UI with a few buttons, several session states relevant to that UI and what this UI represents, I have some data which values are partly displayed in the UI, I …

  5. finite state machine - Software Engineering Stack Exchange

    Dec 30, 2022 · The "modern and practical point of view on how to develop/start developing such a library" really is: "don't." Regular expression engines are hard, even in high level languages, and get …

  6. Reducing cyclomatic complexity of a state machine

    Apr 5, 2023 · The global thing - the whole state machine - generally violates most software engineering "rules of thumb" or "best practices" but each little piece - each state - is easily understood in …

  7. programming languages - Do state machine based programs have a ...

    Jan 7, 2022 · The state machine must start in the data state. Most states consume a single character, which may have various side-effects, and either switches the state machine to a new state to …

  8. Uml State Machine - Software Engineering Stack Exchange

    Sep 5, 2025 · A state machine can contain any number of final states and terminators. Also on the State machine diagram page of visual-paradigm one can see this: So I really think there can be multiple …

  9. State machine - how to handle outside environment values?

    Jul 26, 2021 · The state machine itself then makes the switch happen. Your approach has in any case the inconvenience of an active poll for state changes; polling is always a waste of resources, …

  10. architecture - Managing multiple state machines interacting with each ...

    Oct 15, 2021 · One way to look at this is that a finite state machine is basically just a function + a state variable, that, when given an input, updates the state variable, and produces an (input & state) …
