Let outcome be the value determined by the * following algorithm. If there is a {@code null} return from the invocation, {@link #getOutcome} is called. If the * result is non-{@code null}, its {@code getValue()} method is called and the value is considered to be * outcome. If there is a non-{@code null} return, let it be outcome. Convert outcome to a * String by calling its {@code toString} method. Use outcome to determine the next node in the flow graph. *
