Abstract: istic of imperative programs is that they embody the notion of a computation step: a program being a sequence of actions, it forces a sequence of intermediates states. Typically, the intermediate states are observable, meaning that one can observe something about that intermediate state, either by looking up the value of a variable, by witnessing an output operation, etc. When the intermediate states of a computation are observable, it becomes reasonable to talk about infinite (nonterminating)...
