Notice the rules the engineers use to draw their diagrams:
- the information normally flows from left to right. The inputs are to the left, and the outputs to the right.
- the wires rarely go "backward" from a the output of a gate that is more to the input of a gate that would be to its left.
- the wires are most often horizontal or vertical.
- there are exceptions to the rules above, as is typical for a set of rules!
