Formal Example
A more formal proof of why system A & B from above differ is now presented. To perform this proof, the second definition will be used.
System A:
- Start with a delay of the input
- Now delay the output by
- Clearly, therefore the system is not time-invariant.
System B:
- Start with a delay of the input
- Now delay the output by
- Clearly, therefore the system is time-invariant. Although there are many other proofs, this is the easiest.

Famous quotes containing the word formal:
“Then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Good gentlemen, look fresh and merrily.
Let not our looks put on our purposes,
But bear it as our Roman actors do,
With untired spirits and formal constancy.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
