DESCRIPTION
libablmmm.a is a library that enables to represent a boolean function in a LISP-like form. An ABL is a prefixed internal representation for a boolean function having standard operators as OR,NOR,NAND,XOR,NOT and AND. An ABL is only made up of doublets. A doublet is composed of two fields wich are accessible by the functionnal #define CAR and CDR. A doublet is implemented with a MBK chain_list.Expression is the generic term for a boolean function represented by an ABL. An expression can be an atomic expression or an operator expression. The function f = a is represented by an atomic expression whereas f = (or a b) is represented by an operator expression. An atomic expression is made up of a single doublet having the NEXT pointer equal to NULL and DATA pointer equal to the identifier pointer. A constant atomic expression is an atomic expression having the string "'0'" or "'1'" as identifier.
An operator expression is more complicated than an atomic expression. It's a list of items, the first item is the head operator of the expression and the following items are the arguments of the expression. It's possible to go trough the arguments by calling the functionnal #define CDR. Then each argument is accessible by the functionnal #define CAR. An argument can be recursively an atomic or an operator expression. The arity of an operator expression is the number of arguments of the first level.
Functions are divided into two groups, the low level functions are written with #define and are used to manage the ABL internal form, the high level functions are used to manage the boolean expressions. All functions are defined in the file "prefbib.c" (#define in "logmmm.h").
