A [property of the incoming event](#conditions-on-properties), e.g. its value should be larger than 5, - or larger than the average value of the previously accepted events. - - 2. The [contiguity of the matching events](#conditions-on-contiguity), e.g. detect pattern `a,b,c` without - non-matching events between any matching ones. - -The latter refers to "looping" patterns, *i.e.* patterns that can accept more than one event, e.g. the `b+` in `a b+ c`, -which searches for one or more `b`'s. - -##### Conditions on Properties - -You can specify conditions on the event properties via the `pattern.where()`, `pattern.or()` or the `pattern.until()` method. These can be either `IterativeCondition`s or `SimpleCondition`s. +For every pattern you can specify a condition that incoming event has to met in order to be "accepted" into the pattern e.g. its value should be larger than 5, +or larger than the average value of the previously accepted events. +You can specify conditions on the event properties via the `pattern.where()`, `pattern.or()` or the `pattern.until()` method.
