Stateflow

Motivation Behind the Notation

Chapter 3, Creating Charts, and Chapter 4, Defining Events and Data, discuss how to use the product to create the various objects. Knowing how to create the objects is the first step to designing and implementing a Stateflow diagram. The next step is understanding and using the notation to create a well-designed and efficient Stateflow diagram.

This chapter focuses on the notation: the supported relationships amongst the graphical objects and the action language that dictates the actions that can be associated with states and transitions. The Stateflow notation supports many different ways of representing desired system behavior. The representation you choose directly affects the efficiency of the generated code.
