Description
The code above is a LaTeX document that creates a block diagram using the blox and tikz packages. The block diagram consists of several blocks and arrows that represent a system of interconnected components. The code defines the layout and styling of the blocks and arrows using various blox commands and tikz drawing commands. The document begins with the \documentclass command, which specifies the document class as standalone. The necessary packages are then loaded using the \usepackage command. Finally, the tikzpicture environment is used to create the block diagram using the defined blox and tikz commands.
Keywords
tikzpicture, blox, positioning, bXLineStyle, bXInput, bXComp, bXLink, bXCompa, bXSumb, bXBloc, bXBranchx, bXBranchy.
