9 Description: Tree::DAG_Node - (super)class for representing nodes in a tree
10 Tree::DAG_Node is a (super)class for representing nodes in a tree.
12 This class encapsulates/makes/manipulates objects that represent nodes
13 in a tree structure. The tree structure is not an object itself, but
14 is emergent from the linkages you create between nodes. This class
15 provides the methods for making linkages that can be used to build up
16 a tree, while preventing you from ever making any kinds of linkages
17 which are not allowed in a tree (such as having a node be its own
18 mother or ancestor, or having a node have two mothers).
