Are there any passages in Peirce's writings where he *explicitly *presents

Mathematics is diagrammatic reasoning, and EGs are a version of
logic that uses a more flexible and versatile system of diagrams
than Peirce's algebra of 1885 or any algebra since then.

the diagrams are useful *on

genuinely triadic in their character because the existential facts are now
considered to be governed by general habits of thought.

That passage by Peirce is quite a head-scratcher. For one thing, the

triadic. For another, it seems obvious that just as any triadic relation
