# Introduction

## Assumptions

* A machine degree of complexity varies with the type and ultimately, the use case.
* A machine holds the current state and data.
* Being stateful or stateless depends on the machine's usage.
* Every action, output function and listener function receives the current data object.
* Mutation happens during actions and output functions.
* The machine's determinism is not verified.
