The Ernest's legend

Internal states, in green, descibe what Ernest has in mind. Internal operators, in orange, discribe the operations Ernest mentally computes. Actions, in pink, describe what Ernest acts. Environment, in blue, describe what the environment responds.
Of course, that's a legend, Ernest has no mind. A good reference to explain that is Artificial intelligence meets natural stupidity, Drew McDermott (1976).
