A lecturer is giving a final-year course on the analysis of mortality to a group of undergraduate students. The lectures are very boring, and the number of students attending them gradually falls as the course progresses, even though many of those who stop attending the lectures remain registered for the course and intend to sit the examination. Of course, there are also some students who stop attending the lectures because they die, suspend their registration because of illness, or change courses. Assuming that, once a student has ceased to attend lectures for whatever reason, he or she never resumes attending them, draw a multiple-state representation of this process.
