# Intermediate Thoughts ## Solution Iterate the circuit from a _circuit perspective_ via the def-use chain (with the help of the `WireIterator`) and collect layers and the respective `Operation*`s of...

Once this is done, the `flags: uint16_t` member variable of the `NodeBase` class might be refactored into a struct using [bit fields](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/bit_field.html) as such: ```cpp struct Flags { std::uint32_t keep...
