GETBDDVARNODEBYINDEX(3)

πŸ“¦ version 5.1.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’– GETBDDVARNODEBYINDEX β€” the manual page bestie πŸ’–

okay so this is getbddvarnode from the bdd101.h world, and it's genuinely one of the cutest little functions ever β€” it just hands you the bdd node of a variable. that's it. that's the whole vibe. ✨


🌸 ORIGIN 🌸

this software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM, developed by the ASIM team at the LIP6 laboratory of UniversitΓ© Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·βœ¨

like, they literally built a whole CAD system and we get to use it, no cap. πŸ‘‘


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include "bdd101.h"
bddnode βˆ—getbddvarnodebyindex( BddSystem, Index )
  bddsystem βˆ—BddSystem;
  bddindex   Index;

πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • BddSystem β€” the bdd system. the whole universe we're poking around in, basically. 🌌
  • Index β€” the bdd index. the lil number that tells us which variable we want. πŸ”’

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so getbddvarnode gives you the bdd node of the bdd index Index, inside the bdd system BddSystem. it's giving "personal shopper but for graph nodes". πŸ›οΈ

and here's the tea: if you hand it a null pointer, it just uses the default bdd system instead. no stress, it's got you. 🫢

also, fun fact, this function does not do anything fancy or mysterious β€” it uses simply the table BddSystem->VAR_NODE. literally just a lookup. lowkey iconic for how unbothered it is. πŸ’…


πŸ’œ RETURN VALUE πŸ’œ

getbddvarnode returns a pointer to the variable bdd node. that's your prize, bestie. πŸ†


πŸ”₯ ERRORS πŸ”₯

  • "index xxx out of range, error !" β€” the Index parameter must be a valid index. so like… don't be out here passing nonsense, fr fr. 😭

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

#include "bdd101.h"
   bddsystem  βˆ—BddSystem;
   bddnode    βˆ—BddNode;
   BddSystem  = createbddsystem( 100, 1000, 100, 50000 );
   addbddvar( (bddsystem βˆ—)0, 0 );
   BddNode = getbddvarnodebyindex( (bddsystem βˆ—)0, 2 );
   ...
   destroybddsystem( (bddsystem βˆ—)0 );

see how it builds the system, adds a var, grabs the node, and then cleans up after itself like a responsible main character? we love to see it. 🌟

πŸ’€ BUG REPORT πŸ’€

this tool is under development at the ASIM department of the LIP6 laboratory. they literally need your feedback to improve documentation and tools β€” so if something's weird, tell them, bestie. they're listening. πŸ™ˆ
