Sometimes, you want to talk about the state transition in terms of structures. At other times, you want to talk about how the program moves through a sequence of states. IMHO, terms like loop pose a challenge, since it’s a structural term (a noun) that can also be used as a verb to describe an action, i.e. looping. So when you use it, you can slip from one mode of description to another, and therefore find the next word hard to think of. | |
