this counts in increments of 1, starting from an initial condition. This example is a simple way of exploring the latch (top-middle) and the gate (bottom-right).

It works as follows:

  • the identity block on the left pushes the number 0 which is set as its in-route's value.
  • the first block, either when streamtools starts or on a graph reset, emits true when it receives the first 0 , and true thereafter
  • upon receipt of the first 0 and the first block's true message, the latch emits 0 on its true route.
  • the + block adds 1, emitting 1. This is seen in the log, and also sent to the gate block.
  • the delay block waits 1 second, which is set as its duration-route's value, then emits true which is set as its in-route's value.
  • once the gate receives both the 1 from the add block and the true from the delay block, it emits the 1 to the addition block.
  • upon receipt of the 1 message, the addition block adds 1, emitting 2 back to the gate, which then waits for the delay bock to emit true again, when it emits 2 on its out-route to the addition block
  • this loops continues!
