.SH PARAMETERS
.TP 20
\fIBddSystem\fP
The \fBbdd\fP system.
.TP
\fIBddNode1\fP
The first \fBbdd\fP node.
.TP
\fIBddNode2\fP
The second \fBbdd\fP node.
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBcofactorbddnode\fP computes the generalized cofactor of
\fIBddNode1\fP by \fIBddNode2\fP, in the \fBbdd\fP system \fIBddSystem\fP.
If a null pointer is given, the default \fBbdd\fP system is used.
.br
.SH RETURN VALUE
\fBcofactorbddnode\fP returns the resulting \fBbdd\fP node.
.SH ERRORS
.if n \{\
.ft B \}
.if t \{\
.ft CR \}
"index xxx out of range"
.ft R
.RS
The \fIBddNode2\fP parameter must be different to the zero \fBbdd\fP node.
