1 Consider the logic expression:

X = (NOT P OR Q) NAND (Q XOR R)

(a) Draw a logic circuit for this logic expression.

Each logic gate must have a maximum of two inputs.

Do not simplify the logic expression.

(c) The database uses only the data types:

• alphanumeric
• character
• Boolean
• integer
• real
• date/time.

Complete the table to show the fields that could have the given data types.

Only one field name is required in each box and each field name must be different.
