The TLIGHT sample program to be created will control vehicle and
pedestrian traffic at a pedestrian crossing, as shown in Figure 2-2.
The TLIGHT program is to control both
S The traffic lights for vehicle traffic (traffic lights) and
S The traffic lights for pedestrian traffic (pedestrian lights).
The traffic lights are equipped with the usual red, yellow, and green signals.
The pedestrian lights each have a green and red signal as well as a
pushbutton for pedestrians to request green.
