My 11th computer course book has a chapter on Boolean logic, but it doesnt explain very well and i cant thus understand a word of it.

can someone teach me or show a place where i can learn about boolean logic ? also how important is boolean and where does it chiefly apply

i need the programming concepts huh.gif


thanks !

Could you be specific as in what sub-topics would you like to learn in Boolean Logic?

Boolean logic refers to the process of taking a series of inputs, and outputting one of two decisions based on those inputs...true or false. There is a basic article here:

are you talking about boolean logic as in:

not(AB) = A + B

or using logic gates and multiplexors?

I have covered both in a few classes and it's reasonably easy to understand, (with the right instruction) but puting it into practise.. not always, lol

Xenon...trust me...our Math Textbook sucks for Boolean Logic.
In Class 9 and 10 I had an awesome book...

For NoobGeek Jr:
Would you like articles on Duality and Switching Circuits as well?

They are really one and the same, in the end. Any boolean logic equation can be implemented through the proper use of the appropriate hardware (or software replicants, such as VHDL programming).
