Reactive Programs

Reactive programs, or reactive systems, are those that have an output or state change controlled by the current state and input. These programs react to environmental changes in real time. Basically every relevant control system is a 'reactive' system, but in computer science, reactive programs have a unique meaning. Reactive computer programs are those that have computation depending on external inputs, a.k.a. stuff from OUTSIDE of the computer's world.
