that solve problems that recur in the solutions that PhixFlow implements. Put another way, patterns are the bits of Models that are constantly re-used to solve problems that keep cropping up. There is no hard and fast rule for what constitutes a pattern, and some of the patterns listed here and in PhixFlow documentation and examples might seem very simple. There is also no such things as a definitive pattern list - new patterns can be added at any time. Employing these patterns and examples into PhixFlow models should help speed up model creation and development.
