ASSIGNMENT-3 (THEORY)
WHAT IS BOOLEAN ARITHMETIC ?
• Boolean arithmetic (named after the mathematician George Boole) is a form
of arithmetic that deals only with in ones and zeroes. It has only three
operators: addition, multiplication and negation. As we shall see these
correspond to AND, OR and NOT respectively.
WHAT IS BOOLEAN ALGEBRA ?
• Boolean algebra is a form of mathematics that deals with statements and
their Boolean values. In Boolean algebra variables and functions take on one
of two values: true or false.
WHAT IS A TRUTH TABLE ?
• A truth table is a mathematical table used in logic—specifically in
connection with Boolean algebra.
INPUTS OUTPUT
X Y Z
0 0 0
1 0 1
0 1 1
1 1 1
TRUTH TABLE FOR “AND” OPERATOR.
INPUTS OUTPUT
A B C
0 0 0
1 0 0
0 1 0
1 1 1
TRUTH TABLE FOR “OR” OPERATOR.
INPUTS OUTPUT
X Y Z
0 0 0
1 0 1
0 1 1
1 1 1
WHAT IS REDUNDANCY THEOREM ?
• If two output columns of the truth table match and the two
Boolean operators are equal, then it is called the
REDUNDANCY THEOREM.
For example:- (X+Y)=(X+X+Y)
WHAT IS THE DE-MORGANS THEOREM ?
• De-Morgans Theorem proves that when two or more input variables are
AND'ed and negated, they are equivalent to the OR of the complements of
the individual variables. Thus the equivalent of the NAND function will be a
negative-OR function, proving that A.B = A+B.
For example:- X+Y=X.Y
