We now define the state transition function. At the high level, the state transition is made up of two parts: We now define the state transition function. At the high level, the state transition is made up of two parts:

2. The crystallized state recalculation, which happens only if `block.slot >= last_state_recalculation_slot + CYCLE_LENGTH`, and affects the `CrystallizedState` and `ActiveState` 2. The crystallized state recalculation, which happens only if `block.slot >= last_state_recalculation_slot + CYCLE_LENGTH`, and affects the `CrystallizedState` and `ActiveState`.
The crystallized state recalculation generally focuses on changes to the validator set, including adjusting balances and adding and removing validators, as well as processing crosslinks and managing block justification/finalization, and the per-block processing generally focuses on verifying aggregate signatures and saving temporary records relating to the in-block activity in the `ActiveState`.

### Helper functions ### Helper functions
We start off by defining some helper algorithms. First, the function that selects the active validators: Below are various helper functions.
```python def get_active_validator_indices(validators)
def get_active_validator_indices(validators):
return [i for i, v in enumerate(validators) if v.status == ACTIVE] return [i for i, v in enumerate(validators) if v.status == ACTIVE]
```
Now, a function that shuffles this list: The following is a function that shuffles the validator list:
