💖 CONVERTBDDCIRCUITABL 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about convertbddcircuitabl — a lil function from the BDD FUNCTIONS corner of the manual (that's the (3) section, iykyk). she's a library function, she lives in bdd101.h, and she's here to turn a bdd node into an abl expression. that's it. that's the whole job. and she EATS. 👑

🌸 NAME 🌸

convertbddcircuitabl — converts a bdd node to an abl expression.

literally what it says on the tin, no cap.

🏛️ ORIGIN 🏛️

okay so this software? she's fancy. she belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM, developed by the ASIM team at the LIP6 laboratory of Université Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. 🥐✨ Paris!! the main character city!!

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include "bdd101.h"
chain_list ∗convertbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, BddNode )
  bddcircuit ∗BddCircuit;
  bddnode    ∗BddNode;

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • BddCircuit — the bdd circuit. bestie. the whole vibe. 🦋
  • BddNode — the bdd node we're converting. she's the one getting a glow-up.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

convertbddcircuitabl converts the bdd node to an abl expression. simple as that, periodt.

the BddCircuit is what she uses to translate the variable nodes into atomic expressions — like, that's the dictionary she's reading from, okay?

and here's the lil plot twist: if a null pointer is given, the default bdd circuit is used instead. so like, if you show up empty-handed, she's got a backup. iconic behavior honestly. 🫶

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

convertbddcircuitabl returns a pointer to the abl expression translated. that's your girl. she delivers. 💖

⭐ EXAMPLE ⭐

here's the whole thing in action, copy it, run it, slay:

#include "bdd101.h"
   bddsystem  ∗BddSystem;
   bddcircuit ∗BddCircuit;
   bddnode    ∗BddNode;
   chain_list ∗Expr;
   BddSystem  = createbddsystem( 100, 1000, 100, 50000 );
   BddCircuit = createbddcircuit( "hello_world", 10, 10, BddSystem );
   Expr = createablbinexpr( ABL_AND,
                            createablatom( "i0" ),
                            createablatom( "i1" ) );
   BddNode = addbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, Expr );
   freeablexpr( Expr );
   Expr = convertbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, BddNode );
   /* displays (i0 and i1) */
   viewablexpr( Expr, ABL_VIEW_VHDL );
   freeablexpr( Expr );
   destroybddsystem( (bddsystem ∗)0 );
   destroybddcircuit( (bddcircuit ∗)0 );

not me building a whole bdd system just to say hello_world 😭 but okay!! we love a named circuit!!
