Algebraic decision diagram

An algebraic decision diagram is like a special type of picture that helps us visualize math problems. It starts with a big circle at the top, which may have different shapes or colors. The circle is then separated into different sections (like pieces of a pie), each of which represents a certain decision or responsibility. The arrows coming out of the circle tell us which decision leads to which responsibility. It looks something like a roadmap and we can use it to solve math problems quickly. It's like a shortcut for understanding how a math problem works.
