Transistors wired in series and parallel patterns make up "gates," which accept binary input (0 = no pulse; 1 = pulse) and generate binary output. Although AND requires both inputs to be 1 in order to ...

Boolean logic is an essential part of mathematics, engineering, and programming. In most languages, there's a dedicated ...

Boolean logic allows one to better understand a complicated system, such as a computer or a living cell, by breaking it down into simple functions: combinations of present and absent input affect the ...

A collection of transistors and resistors that implement Boolean logic operations in a digital circuit. Logic gates have one or two 0 or 1 inputs but only one 0 or 1 output as in the following ...

Studia Logica: An International Journal for Symbolic Logic, Vol. 49, No. 2 (1990), pp. 197-214 (18 pages) We illustrate, with three examples, the interaction between boolean and modal connectives by ...

Researchers have created a "biocomputer" out of strands of RNA inside a living yeast cell, and demonstrated that it can be programmed to respond to conditions within the cell by taking specific ...

There are two main reasons mathematics has fascinated humanity for two thousand years. First, math gives us the tools we need to understand the universe and build things. Second, the study of ...
