What are Transitions?

• Transitions are possible state changes

  • Start state, end state, trigger, guard condition, action

• Guard conditions must evaluate to true for the transition to be taken

• Transitions can have actions that execute when the transition is taken

• Example:

  • A WristWatch can go from state Date to state Time when the user presses the ModeButton
  • The WristWatch will beep on the transition into SetDate
