Install

npm install ladder-diagram

Usage

This code generates a diagram that visualises the boolean expression:

equation

walk swim sink eat alcohol non-alcohol
Default Value - F - - - F
Known Value T F - F T -
<html>
<head>
    <!-- Path to the style sheet for this codebase -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./node_modules/ladder-diagram/css/ladder.css">
</head>
<body>

<!-- 
    Diagram will be generated as a child of this DOM element.
    The diagram scales with the font-size 
-->
<div id="test" style="font-size:1.5em;"></div>

<script type="module">

// Path to the main js file
import { 
    BoolVar, AllQuantifier, AnyQuantifier, LadderDiagram 
} from "./node_modules/ladder-diagram/js/ladder.js"

let circuit = new AllQuantifier([
    new BoolVar("walk", false, null, 'T'),
    new AnyQuantifier([
        new BoolVar("swim", true, 'F', 'F'),
        new BoolVar("sink", true),
    ]),
    new AnyQuantifier([
        new BoolVar("eat", false, null, 'F'),
        new AnyQuantifier([
            new BoolVar("alcoholic", false, null, 'T'),
            new BoolVar("non-alcoholic", false, 'F')
        ],
        "drink")
    ])
])

window.diagram = new LadderDiagram(
    document.getElementById("test"),
    circuit,
    "Corners" // Box styling
)
</script>
</body>
</html>

Given the known values of each boolean variable, the resulting expression evaluates to True, and the diagram highlights a "path" that explains the truth value of the expression.

Corners vs Sides Styling

To enable an alternative box styling, change the box_style argument to "Sides":

new LadderDiagram(
    document.getElementById("test"),
    circuit,
    "Sides" // Box styling
)

This alternative design marks the sides instead of the corners, according to the original spec.
