How to read this diagram

Start at the centre node — that's the unit headline.
Each branch is a sub-concept; deeper branches are the underlying frameworks, formulas or examples.
Use the diagram as a revision checklist: every node is something you should be able to explain in one sentence.
Want the full lesson? Open the parent course on the right — every node maps to a lesson, a quiz and a career-defining credential the world's top employers actively hire from.
