5.5 Inspecting your model in the Outline view

The Bio-PEPA editor allows you to compose your model and checks that it is free from syntax errors and reports semantic errors such as missing declarations. The Outline view allows you to see your model in a different way. It provides a concise summary of your model much as a table of contents provides a summary of a book. You can see all of the species which are declared and a list of all reactions. In this simple example there is only one reaction, which destroys $S$. Species are categorised as being either sources (which are only decreased by reactions) or sinks (which are only increased by reactions), as appropriate. Reactions are also categorised as being either source actions (which produce matter) or sink actions (which consume matter).
