\item One test assures infinite correct situations
\item In software a small change in the input may result in significantly different behaviour
\item There are also chaotic systems in nature, but products of engineering
design are usually stable and well-behaved
% consider the examples of weather, bifurcation in engineering, chaos theory for traffic, etc.
