Remarks
Recognition proceeds by means of transitions from one rule state to another. Each rule state has a collection of transitions, which represent the possible recognition paths to subsequent rule states.
In the absence of weighting, each transition is considered equally probable. For example, in a rule state with five transitions, each has a 20 percent probability of being followed. The Weight property enables grammar designers to specify a transition as more probable, or less probable, than its sibling transitions.
The weight property for a transition is a fractional number with a range of zero to one, and the sum of the weights of a rule state's transition should be one.
