Can someone tell me what is the purpose of "diagraming" a sentence?

Thanks.

Diagramming a sentence helps us see its individual parts and how they relate to each other. In an especially long or complex sentence, diagramming it helps me understand and comprehend it. Check this site.

Good to know. Thanks for the site...I bookmarked it.
Diagramming will help you to "think" grammatically, and will help you NOT to write sentences that leave others saying "huh???
After one learns diagramming, one seems to automatically write more accurately.
