1. A method of manipulating an edge-labeled tree (ELT) comprising:
- executing instructions on one or more processors, said executing comprising;
converting a first ELT in a first view, said first ELT in said first view being in the form of digital electronic signals, to a first ELT in a second view, said first ELT in said second view also being in the form of digital electronic signals;
and further comprising;
combining said first ELT in said second view with a second ELT in said second view;
wherein said combining comprises;
converting said ELTs in said second view to numerals;
combining said numerals; and
converting said combined numerals to an ELT;
said executing to at least further database management operations and/or to facilitate pattern matching operations.
