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

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 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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
