Eric, I'm pretty sure that you may be misunderstanding here. In the
example listed below, the node labeled "ADF" would be an *ADF* class,
not an *ADFArgument* class. The (in this case: one) ADFArgument node
would not be in the function set of the result-producing branch, but in
the ADF branch.
For example, let's say the result branch is the one you listed below.
I'll put it in Lisp form:
(if xx (adf (if yx yy yz)) xy)
When the 'adf' node is called, we first call its subtree (if yx yy yz)
and store that in a variable called, say, foo0. Then ccontrol is
transferred to its corresponding ADF tree. Let's say that tree looks
like this:
ADF: (* (sin adfargument0) (+ x 1))
When the adfargument0 terminal is called, it returns the value of foo0.
Ultimately the ADF tree returns a value, let's say it's 'bar'.
Control then returns to the result branch and the 'adf' node returns the
value bar, and we continue on our merry way.
