Node C Structure
----------------

The Node C structure defines the internal state and behavior of a node in a dynamical system.
It contains generic attributes like state variables, inputs, and parameters.
All nodes are many-inputs-single-output (MISO).
The simplest case would be a node with one input and one input.
A node can have N-states that will be integrated by a numerical integrator over time.
A stateless node will have zero states and is useful in using the node as a transfer function.
