The best way to learn about rapid prototyping is to see a visual of the process. Below is a diagram that reflects how the method works.

The beginning of the model can be connected to the end, as it repeats in a cyclical nature.
The process begins with '''Analysis and Quick Design'''. This can observe and test an existing idea, often ending in a desire to change a current system. After the system is observed, initial changes are made.
After this process is completed, '''prototype cycles '''work to implent changes, which are continually '''tested'''. If the cycle proves to be successful, through the initial processes of '''analysis and quick design''', it is deployed until further change is needed or desired.
