Quick Start

Here is the minimum you need to get started with TreeDecisions. It's designed for those who already familiar with the logic and conventions of decision trees.

1. Open the Tree Builder
2. Click the blue Create button, enter a name, and create a new tree
   
   
3. Right-click on the empty canvas and Add Chance Node
   
   
4. Right-click on your new chance node and Add Branch to... Terminal Node
   
5. Click on the ??? on the new branch and replace it with a label like "Success" or "Failure". Then click on the ??% and replace it with a probability like 0.5. Ignore the red warning for now.
   
6. Click on the ??? next to the new terminal node and replace it with a value like 100
   
7. Repeat steps 4 to 7 to add another branch to the original chance node. Make sure the probabilities of the branches sum to 1.0.
   
8. Click the Calculate button in the top toolbar to compute the expected values of your new tree.
   

Congrats! You just built your first decision tree in TreeDecisions.
