... This review presents the results of Scenario Machine computations aimed at the population synthesis of different types of binary stars in our Galaxy and another galaxies. They demonstrate the ability of this method to make an important gross analysis of the modern scenarios for binary evolution, as well as to give interesting qualitative and quantitative predictions which can be checked observationally. ... The future development of the method can be considered from two different points of view. ...
