MDD Sketcher!

A simple code that draws your multivalued/binary decision diagrams.


Today some students in my class told me they are spending a lot of time manually drawing BDDs when they want to test their understanding of more complicated instances. So here comes graphviz!

Here is the documented code that includes a simple example:
