The article explains how to construct and interpret Feynman diagrams purely as combinatorial graphs, without requiring knowledge of the underlying particle physics. It introduces the diagrams as directed multigraphs with labeled edges and vertices, and shows how to translate them into algebraic expressions using simple rules, making the topic accessible to mathematicians and non-physicists.
