Overrides:

toString in class Object

collapseAssociativeFormulas

public PropositionalFormula collapseAssociativeFormulas()

Description copied from class: PropositionalFormula

This method collapses all associative operations appearing in this term, e.g. every a||(b||c) becomes a||b||c.

Specified by:

collapseAssociativeFormulas in class PropositionalFormula

Returns:

the collapsed formula.
