Decision Trees
- Unlike a flow chart, a decision tree consists of three types of nodes:
- Chance nodes - represented by circles – the branch taken is determined by probabilities.
- End nodes - represented by triangles – there are no more branches extending from the node, and the final value of the strategy is listed.
- Each end node was given a value.
- Next to the terminal nodes is blue text with the yield and gain.
