What are continuous processes?

A continuous process is like a never-ending conveyor belt that keeps things moving from one step to the next, no stops, no starts.

Imagine you're at a bakery every morning, and there's a machine making bread all day long. It takes dough, bakes it, and puts it in a tray, nonstop. That’s a continuous process! Just like how your favorite cereal comes out of a factory one piece after another without ever stopping.

Think of a continuous process as a river flowing. Water keeps moving from the mountain to the sea, never really stopping. In a bakery, the dough is like the water, it moves through different parts of the machine, getting shaped and cooked step by step, just like how the river flows through valleys and rivers.

When you're on a continuous process, there are no big breaks or pauses. It’s smooth, steady movement, like walking on a treadmill without ever stopping to rest. That's why factories and bakeries can keep producing so much food all day long!
