Signals are messages sent to a computer from some external source and can be used for many purposes. They always have at least a name, and may have any number of (simple) parameters. Note that computers may also queue signals on themselves.
Signals can be consumed using [[computer.pullSignal()|API/Computer]] or its preferred wrapper, [[event.pull()|API/Event]]. The latter is preferred because unwanted signals and the requested signal itself are also distributed as events, which is used by a couple of system functions, such as primary component tracking.
