# #' Termination Function class
# #'
# #' Termination functions are general functions for representing the stopping conditions for an experiment.
# #'
# #' In the CAB package, objects from classes like \code{termination} are called 'elemental' objects That is, they comprise a particular element of the simulation without any specified parameter values. 'Control' objects are elemental objects with an associated list of parameter values. Refer to \code{\link{class.DOR}} for information for putting a \code{termination} in a model.
# #'
# #' When the \code{termination} object is used to contain many termination condtiions, each termination condition should be programmed into a single Termination function that is contained in the \code{termination} object. Alternatively, one may define different custom classes to manage each termination condition. For more details on implementing multiple classes for multiple termination conditions, see \code{\link{class.termination}}.
# #'
# #' The \code{show} method for the \code{termination} class can be removed with the function \code{remove.termination.show()} and reinstated with \code{termination.show}.
# #'
# #' @slot termination This will contain a Termination function. See examples.
# #' @slot name The name of the \code{termination} object.
# #' @slot type This will be \code{elemental} because the \code{termination} is an \code{termination} object.
# #'
# #' @section Built-in Termination functions:{
# #' A list of the built-in Termination functions. The function definitions can be seen by calling the name of the function without brackets. Each function returns a \code{logical} indicating whether or not the termination condition is met.
# #'     \describe{
# #'         \item{\code{time_termination_fx( time, finish_time)}}{Experimental terminates after the set time.}
# #'         \item{\code{resp_termination_fx( resp, finish_resp)}}{Experiment terminates after set number of responses.}
# #' } }
# #'
# #' @section Make an \code{termination} object from a Termination function:{
# #' Use the \code{make.termination} function to make a \code{termination} object.
# #'     \subsection{Usage}{
# #'         \code{make.termination( termination_fx, name )}
# #'     }
# #'     \subsection{Arguments}{
# #'         \describe{
# #'             \item{\code{termination_fx}}{A function that represents the Termination function of interest}
# #'             \item{\code{name}}{A character vector specifying the name of your \code{termination} object}
# #'         }
# #'     }
# #'     \subsection{Value}{
# #'         Returns a \code{termination} object.
