While Combo has a textual representation, described online at the OpenCog wiki, this isn't one of its more important aspects (and may be redesigned slightly or

an internal node of a program, can also live in its own Atom. For example. a number in a program tree corresponds to a NmnberNode; an argument in a Combo program already corresponds to some Atom; and an operator in a program can be wrapped up in a Schemallode all its own, and considered as a one-leaf

MindAgents, e.g. - activation affects action selection. For instance this may be effected by a process that, each cycle, causes a certain amount of STICurrency to pass to schema satisfying certain properties (those involving physical action, or terminating rapidly). The amount of currency passed in this wa
