  The Algorithmic State Machine (ASM) design is comparable with the design of computer software like assembler or high level languages like C++, Java etc. 

A flowchart which describe the States and Romps which describe the transitions will be useful for the design and documentation.

The difference between a "normal" FSM and an ASM could sometimes be hard to spot.

   

(1) Draw a flowchart based at one of the ASM-like State Machines below.
