Peirce’s 1880 “Algebra Of Logic” Chapter 3 • Comment 7.3

Dyadic relations have graph-theoretic representations as labeled directed graphs with loops, also known as labeled pseudo-digraphs in some schools of graph theory.  I’ll just call them digraphs here, letting the labels and loops be understood in this logical context.

The figure below shows the digraphs of the 16 dyadic relations on two points, adopting the same arrangement as the previous display of binary matrices.
