"""
Composites are responsible for directing the path traced through
the tree on a given tick (execution). They are the **factories**
(Sequences and Parallels) and **decision makers** (Selectors) of a behaviour
tree.

.. graphviz:: dot/composites.dot
   :align: center
   :caption: PyTree Composites

Composite behaviours typically manage children and apply some logic to the way
they execute and return a result, but generally don't do anything themselves.
Perform the checks or actions you need to do in the non-composite behaviours.

Most any desired functionality can be authored with a combination of these
three composites. In fact, it is precisely this feature that makes behaviour
trees attractive - it breaks down complex decision making logic to just three
primitive elements. It is possible and often desirable to extend this set with
custom composites of your own, but think carefully before you do - in almost
every case, a combination of the existing composites will serve and as a
result, you will merely compound the complexity inherent in your tree logic.
This this makes it confoundingly difficult to design, introspect and debug. As
an example, design sessions often revolve around a sketched graph on a
whiteboard. When these graphs are composed of just five elements (Selectors,
Sequences, Parallels, Decorators and Behaviours), it is very easy to understand
the logic at a glance. Double the number of fundamental elements and you may as
well be back at the terminal parsing code.

.. tip:: You should never need to subclass or create new composites.

The basic operational modes of the three composites in this library are as follows:

* :class:`~py_trees.composites.Selector`: select a child to execute based on cascading priorities
* :class:`~py_trees.composites.Sequence`: execute children sequentially
* :class:`~py_trees.composites.Parallel`: execute children concurrently

This library does provide some flexibility in *how* each composite is implemented without
breaking the fundamental nature of each (as described above). Selectors and Sequences can
be configured with or without memory (resumes or resets if children are RUNNING) and
the results of a parallel can be configured to wait upon all children completing, succeed
on one, all or a subset thereof.

.. tip:: Follow the links in each composite's documentation to the relevant demo programs.
