"""
    islinear(s::AbstractSystem)

Specifies if the dynamics of system `s` is specified by linear equations.

### Notes

We adopt the notion from [Section 2.7, 1]. For example, the system with inputs
``x' = f(t, x, u) = A x + B u`` is linear, since the function ``f(t, ⋅, ⋅)`` is
linear in ``(x, u)`` for each ``t ∈ \\mathbb{R}``. On the other hand,
``x' = f(t, x, u) = A x + B u + c`` is affine but not linear, since it is not
linear in ``(x, u)``.

The result of this function only depends on the system type, not the value, and
can also be applied to `typeof(s)`. So, if a system type allows an instance that
is not linear, it returns `false` by default. For example, polynomial systems
can be nonlinear; hence `islinear` returns `false`.

An affine system is the composition of a linear system and a translation.

in this library.
