  Synopsis    [Extracts a dense subset from a BDD with the heavy branch
  heuristic.]

  Description [Extracts a dense subset from a BDD. This procedure
  builds a subset by throwing away one of the children of each node,
  starting from the root, until the result is small enough. The child
  that is eliminated from the result is the one that contributes the
  fewer minterms.  Returns a pointer to the BDD of the subset if
  successful. NULL if the procedure runs out of memory. The parameter
  numVars is the maximum number of variables to be used in minterm
  calculation and node count calculation.  The optimal number should
  be as close as possible to the size of the support of f.  However,
  it is safe to pass the value returned by Cudd_ReadSize for numVars
  when the number of variables is under 1023.  If numVars is larger
  than 1023, it will overflow. If a 0 parameter is passed then the
  procedure will compute a value which will avoid overflow but will
  cause underflow with 2046 variables or more.]

  Synopsis    [Extracts a dense superset from a BDD with the heavy branch
  heuristic.]

  Description [Extracts a dense superset from a BDD. The procedure is
  identical to the subset procedure except for the fact that it
  receives the complement of the given function. Extracting the subset
  of the complement function is equivalent to extracting the superset
  of the function. This procedure builds a superset by throwing away
  one of the children of each node starting from the root of the
  complement function, until the result is small enough. The child
  that is eliminated from the result is the one that contributes the
  fewer minterms.
  Returns a pointer to the BDD of the superset if successful. NULL if
  intermediate result causes the procedure to run out of memory. The
  parameter numVars is the maximum number of variables to be used in
  minterm calculation and node count calculation.  The optimal number
  should be as close as possible to the size of the support of f.
  However, it is safe to pass the value returned by Cudd_ReadSize for
  numVars when the number of variables is under 1023.  If numVars is
  larger than 1023, it will overflow. If a 0 parameter is passed then
  the procedure will compute a value which will avoid overflow but
  will cause underflow with 2046 variables or more.]

  Synopsis    [The main procedure that returns a subset by choosing the heavier
  branch in the BDD.]

  Description [Here a subset BDD is built by throwing away one of the
  children. Starting at root, annotate each node with the number of
  minterms (in terms of the total number of variables specified -
  numVars), number of nodes taken by the DAG rooted at this node and
  number of additional nodes taken by the child that has the lesser
  minterms. The child with the lower number of minterms is thrown away
  and a dyanmic count of the nodes of the subset is kept. Once the
  threshold is reached the subset is returned to the calling
  procedure.]
