States
This section describes Stateflow's primary object, the state. States represent modes of a reactive system. See the following topics for information about states and their properties:
- What Is a State? -- Describes states as modes of behavior that can be active or inactive.
- State Hierarchy -- Explains Stateflow's hierarchy of objects and how it is represented for graphical and nongraphical objects.
- State Decomposition -- Shows you how states can be exclusive of each other or parallel with each other in behavior in an executing diagram.
- State Labels -- Shows you how to specify the name of a state and its actions through its label.
