finite state machines are useful for
A
modelling and design of computer programs as well as digital hardware systems
B
showing notation for context-free grammars, describing the syntax of languages
C
providing tools to facilitate communication, measurement, commerce and manufacturing
D
knowing the framework around technology integration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Finite state machines can be used to model problems in many fields including mathematics, artificial intelligence, games, and linguistics. A system where particular inputs cause particular changes in state can be represented using finite state machines. This example describes the various states of a turnstile.

Detailed explanation-2: -In computer science, finite-state machines are widely used in modeling of application behavior, design of hardware digital systems, software engineering, compilers, network protocols, and the study of computation and languages.

Detailed explanation-3: -Finite state machine (FSM) is a term used by programmers, mathematicians, engineers and other professionals to describe a mathematical model for any system that has a limited number of conditional states of being.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: Finite state machines are used for algorithmic test pattern generation testing for the circuit under test.
