 * @class Event
 * @sbmlbrief{core} A discontinuous SBML <em>event</em>.
 * 
 * An SBML Event object defines when the event can occur, the variables
 * that are affected by it, how the variables are affected, and the event's
 * relationship to other events.  The effect of the event can optionally be
 * delayed after the occurrence of the condition which invokes it.
 *
 * The operation of Event is divided into two phases (even when the event
 * is not delayed): one when the event is @em triggered, and the other when
 * the event is @em executed.  Trigger objects define the conditions for
 * triggering an event, Delay objects define when the event is actually
 * executed, EventAssignment objects define the effects of executing the
 * event, and (in SBML Level&nbsp;3) Priority objects influence the order
 * of EventAssignment performance in cases of simultaneous events.  Please
 * consult the descriptions of Trigger, Delay, EventAssignment and Priority
 * for more information.
 *
 * @section event-version-diffs SBML Level/Version differences
 * 
 * @subsection sbml-l2 SBML Level 2
 * 
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 versions before Version&nbsp;4, the semantics of
 * Event time delays were defined such that the expressions in the event's
 * assignments were always evaluated at the time the event was
 * <em>triggered</em>.  This definition made it difficult to define an event
 * whose assignment formulas were meant to be evaluated at the time the
 * event was <em>executed</em> (i.e., after the time period defined
 * by the value of the Delay element, or after any other simultaneous
 * event may have been <em>executed</em> and changed the model state).
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;4 and in
 * Level&nbsp;3, the attribute "useValuesFromTriggerTime" on Event was added 
 * to allow a model to indicate the time at which the event's assignments 
 * are to be calculated, whether at the moment the event is triggered (if
 * the value of the attribute is @c true), or at the moment of execution
 * (if "useValuesFromTriggerTime"=@c false).  If the event has a delay,
 * the "useValuesFromTriggerTime" is likely to make a significant difference
 * in the values used in the assignment, but the possibility of simultaneous
 * events mean that even zero-delay events can have different results
 * depending on the value of this attribute.
 *
 * The definition of Event in SBML Level&nbsp;2 Versions 1 and 2 includes
 * an additional attribute called "timeUnits", which allowed the time units
 * of the Delay to be set explicitly.  Later Versions of SBML Level&nbsp;2
 * as well as SBML Level&nbsp;3 do not define this attribute.  LibSBML
 * supports this attribute for compatibility with previous versions of SBML
 * Level&nbsp;2; however, if a model in SBML Level&nbsp;3 or Level&nbsp;2
 * Versions&nbsp;3&ndash;4 format sets the attribute, the
 * consistency-checking method SBMLDocument::checkConsistency() will report
 * an error.
 *
 * The attribute "useValuesFromTriggerTime" was introduced in SBML
 * Level&nbsp;2 Version&nbsp;4.  Models defined in prior Versions of SBML
 * Level&nbsp;2 cannot use this attribute, and
 * SBMLDocument::checkConsistency() will report an error if they do.
 *
 * @subsection sbml-l3 SBML Level 3
 *
 * SBML Level 3 introduces several changes to the structure and components
 * of Events compared to SBML Level&nbsp;2.  These changes fall into two
 * main categories: changes to what is optional or required, and additions
 * of new attributes and elements.
 * <ul>
 * <li> The attribute "useValuesFromTriggerTime" on Event is mandatory (it
 * was optional in Level&nbsp;2 and had a default value of @c true);
 * <li> Event's "listOfEventAssignments" element (of class
 * ListOfEventAssignments) is optional (it was mandatory in Level&nbsp;2);
 * <li> Event's "priority" element (of class Priority) is new in
 * Level&nbsp;3; and
 * <li> The Trigger object gains new mandatory attributes (described as part
 * of the definition of Trigger).
 * <li> In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, the Trigger object became 
 * optional.  An Event with no Trigger will simply not fire.
 * </ul>
 *
 * The changes to the attributes of Event are described below; the changes
 * to Trigger and Priority are described in their respective sections.
 *
 * @section semantics Semantics of events in SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;1
 *
 * The detailed semantics of events are described in the specification
 * documents for each SBML Level/Version.  Here we include the description
 * from the SBML Level&nbsp;1 Version&nbsp;1.
 * Any transition of a Trigger object's "math" formula from the value
 * @c false to @c true will cause the enclosing Event object to
 * <em>trigger</em>.  Such a transition is not possible at the very start
 * of a simulation (i.e., at time <em>t = 0</em>) unless the Trigger
 * object's "initialValue" attribute has a value of @c false; this defines
 * the value of the trigger formula to be @c false immediately prior to the
 * start of simulation, thereby giving it the potential to change in value
 * from @c false to @c true when the formula is evaluated at <em>t =
 * 0</em>.  If "initialValue"=@c true, then the trigger expression cannot
 * transition from @c false to @c true at <em>t = 0</em> but may do so at
 * some time <em>t > 0</em>.
 * 
 * Consider an Event object definition <EM>E</EM> with delay <em>d</em> in
 * which the Trigger object's "math" formula makes a transition in value
 * from @c false to @c true at times <em>t<sub>1</sub></em> and
 * <em>t<sub>2</sub></em>.  The EventAssignment within the Event object
 * will have effect at <em>t<sub>1</sub> + d</em> and
 * <em>t<sub>2</sub> + d</em> irrespective of the relative times of
 * <em>t<sub>1</sub></em> and <em>t<sub>2</sub></em>.  For example, events
 * can "overlap" so that <em>t<sub>1</sub> < t<sub>2</sub> <
 * t<sub>1</sub> + d</em> still causes an event assignments to occur at
 * <em>t<sub>1</sub> + d</em> and <em>t<sub>2</sub> + d</em>.
 * 
 * It is entirely possible for two events to be executed simultaneously,
 * and it is possible for events to trigger other events (i.e., an event
 * assignment can cause an event to trigger).  This leads to several
 * points:
 * <ul>
 * 
 * <li> A software package should retest all event triggers after executing
 * an event assignment in order to account for the possibility that the
 * assignment causes another event trigger to transition from @c false to
 * @c true.  This check should be made after each individual Event object's
 * execution, even when several events are to be executed simultaneously.
 * 
 * <li> Any Event object whose Trigger "persistent" attribute has the value
 * @c false must have its trigger expression reevaluated continuously
 * between when the event is triggered and when it is executed.  If
 * its trigger expression ever evaluates to @c false, it must be removed
 * from the queue of events pending execution and treated as any other
 * event whose trigger expression evaluates to @c false.
 * 
 * <li> Although the precise time at which events are executed is not
 * resolved beyond the given execution point in simulated time, it is
 * assumed that the order in which the events occur <em>is</em> resolved.
 * This order can be significant in determining the overall outcome of a
 * given simulation.  When an event <EM>X</EM> <em>triggers</em> another
 * event <EM>Y</EM> and event <EM>Y</EM> has zero delay, then event
 * <EM>Y</EM> is added to the existing set of simultaneous events that are
 * pending <em>execution</em>.  Events <EM>X</EM> and <EM>Y</EM> form a
 * cascade of events at the same point in simulation time.  An event such
 * as <EM>Y</EM> may have a special priority if it contains a Priority
 * subobject.
 * 
 * <li> All events in a model are open to being in a cascade.  The position
 * of an event in the event queue does not affect whether it can be in the
 * cascade: event <EM>Y</EM> can be triggered whether it is before or after
 * <EM>X</EM> in the queue of events pending execution.  A cascade of
 * events can be potentially infinite (never terminate); when this occurs a
 * simulator should indicate this has occurred---it is incorrect for a
 * simulator to break a cascade arbitrarily and continue the simulation
 * without at least indicating that the infinite cascade occurred.
 * 
 * <li> Simultaneous events having no defined priorities are executed in an
 * undefined order.  This does not mean that the behavior of the simulation
 * is completely undefined; merely that the <em>order</em> of execution of
 * these particular events is undefined.  A given simulator may use any
 * algorithm to choose an order as long as every event is executed exactly
 * once.
 * 
 * <li> Events with defined priorities are executed in the order implied by
 * their Priority "math" formula values, with events having higher
 * priorities being executed ahead of events with lower priorities, and
 * events with identical priorities being executed in a random order with
 * respect to one another (as determined at run-time by some random
 * algorithm equivalent to coin-flipping).  Newly-triggered events that are
 * to be executed immediately (i.e., if they define no delays) should be
 * inserted into the queue of events pending execution according to their
 * priorities: events with higher priority values value must be inserted
 * ahead of events with lower priority values and after any pending events
 * with even higher priorities, and inserted randomly among pending events
 * with the same priority values.  Events without Priority objects must be
 * inserted into the queue in some fashion, but the algorithm used to place
 * it in the queue is undefined.  Similarly, there is no restriction on the
 * order of a newly-inserted event with a defined Priority with respect to
 * any other pending Event without a defined Priority.
 * 
 * <li> A model variable that is the target of one or more event
 * assignments can change more than once when simultaneous events are
 * processed at some time point <em>t</em>.  The model's behavior (output)
 * for such a variable is the value of the variable at the end of
 * processing all the simultaneous events at time <em>t</em>.
 * 
 * </ul>
 *
 * @section l3v2_restrictions Restrictions relaxed in SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, several restrictions were lifted 
 * that have the potential to affect the semantics of an Event:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li> The Trigger subobject of an Event is optional.  If missing,
 * an Event is never @em triggered, unless an alternate triggering 
 * scheme is introduced by an SBML Level&nbsp;3 package.
 *
 * <li> The "math" subelements of an Event Trigger, Delay, Priority,
 * and EventAssignment are all optional.  If any of these elements lack 
 * a "math" subelement, and that information is not supplied in an SBML
 * Level&nbsp;3 package, it is mathematically equivalent to the Trigger, 
 * Delay, Priority, or EventAssignment not being present at all.
 *
 * <li> The ListOfEventAssignments may be empty, which is mathematically 
 * equivalent to the Event not having a ListOfEventAssignments at all.
 *
 * <li> Any "math" subelement may return a Boolean or a numeric value
 * in any context.  If a numeric value is used in a Boolean context,
 * a "0" is interpreted as @c false, and all other values are
 * interpreted as @c true.  If a Boolean value is used in a numeric 
 * context, a @c true is interpreted as a 1, and a @c false is 
 * interpreted as a 0.  This means (for example) that a Trigger value 
 * that changes from 0.0 to anything else is equivalent to changing 
 * from @c false to @c true.
 * </ul>

 * @par
 * The optional Delay on Event and the fact that multiple events may be
 * simultaneously executed means there are two times to consider when
 * computing the results of an event: the time at which the event is
 * <em>triggered</em>, and the time at which assignments are
 * <em>executed</em>.  It is also possible to distinguish between the
 * time at which the EventAssignment's expression is calculated, and the
 * time at which the assignment is made: the expression could be
 * evaluated at the same time the assignments are performed, i.e., when
 * the event is <em>executed</em>, but it could also be defined to be
 * evaluated at the time the event is <em>triggered</em>.
 * 
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2 versions prior to Version&nbsp;4, the semantics
 * of Event time delays were defined such that the expressions in the
 * event's assignments were always evaluated at the time the event was
 * <em>triggered</em>.  This definition made it difficult to define an
 * event whose assignment formulas were meant to be evaluated at the time
 * the event was <em>executed</em> (i.e., after the time period defined
 * by the value of the Delay element, or after any other simultaneous
 * event may have been <em>executed</em> and changed the model state).
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;2
 * Version&nbsp;4, the attribute "useValuesFromTriggerTime" on Event
 * allows a model to indicate the time at which the event's assignments
 * are intended to be evaluated.  In SBML Level&nbsp;2, the attribute has
 * a default value of @c true, which corresponds to the interpretation of
 * event assignments prior to Version&nbsp;4: the values of the
 * assignment formulas are computed at the moment the event is triggered,
 * not after the delay.  If "useValuesFromTriggerTime"=@c false, it means
 * that the formulas in the event's assignments are to be computed after
 * the delay, at the time the event is executed.  In SBML Level&nbsp;3,
 * the attribute is mandatory, not optional, and all events must specify
 * a value for it.
