Finite State Machines and the State Pattern
Give the title of your exercise, which may include the name of the topic you are covering, or some other catchy title.
The problem
Finite state machines are abstract models of systems that have a set number of states, inputs, and rules for transitioning from one state to another. Understanding all the parts of a FSM can be difficult, especially in systems that feature a large number of states and transitions.
Participants and props
How many students will participate? What else do you need (e.g., old tennis ball, Powerpoint slides, software).
