Chapter Overview

Boolean logic uses true/false values with AND, OR, NOT gates — foundation of digital circuits and computer decision-making.

Logic Gates

  • AND: 1 only if both inputs 1
  • OR: 1 if any input 1
  • NOT: inverts input
  • NAND, NOR, XOR — combinations

Truth Tables

  • List all input combinations and output
  • AND: 1 AND 1 = 1, else 0
  • OR: 0 OR 0 = 0, else 1
  • NOT: NOT 1 = 0

Solved Examples

Step-by-step solutions — read each step before checking the final answer.

AND gate
