+## Visualization
+
+The ability to export the internal binary expression tree resulting from the parsed term as [Graphviz] `dot` is useful for both visualization and debugging purposes. In the following image you can see the depiction of the tree resulting from the arbitrarily chosen term `2.5*(2+3-(3/2+1*(21+11+(5*2))))`:
