title: Constructing dynamical systems with specified symbolic dynamics.
abstract: In this paper we demonstrate how to construct signals (time series) of continuous-time dynamical systems that exhibit a given symbolic dynamics. This is achieved without construction of the ordinary differential equations that generate the flow. This construction is of theoretical interest and is useful as a source of dynamical data that can be used to test various data analysis algorithms.
