 * Objects of this class represent values that can change over time ---

 * Time is the type of time values, T is the value that changes over time.
 * There are a finite set of "change times"; at each change time, the function
 * instantly changes to a new value.
 * There is also a "current time" which must always advance (not go backward).
 * The function is constant for all times less than the current time.
 * When the current time is advanced, the value of the function at the new
 * current time replaces the values for all previous times.
 *
 * The implementation records a mCurrent (the value at the current time)
 * and an array of "change times" (greater than the current time) and the
 * new value for each change time. This is a simple but dumb implementation.
