A truth table lists the value of a Boolean expression for every combination of its inputs: 2ⁿ rows for n variables, so 8 rows for A, B and C. Each row where the expression is 1 is a minterm, and the OR of those minterms is the canonical sum of products; each row where it is 0 is a maxterm, and the AND of the maxterms is the canonical product of sums. Both describe the same function.

Digital logic and computer science students use it to check circuit designs, simplify conditions and verify logic laws. The default, (A and B) or not C, is true in 5 of 8 rows, minterms 0, 2, 4, 6 and 7, and false in rows 1, 3 and 5.

Up to 6 variables (64 rows) are accepted. Precedence runs not, and/nand, xor, or/nor, implies (grouped from the right), then iff; symbols such as !, &, | and ^ also work. An expression true in every row is a tautology, and one false in every row is a contradiction.

## الأسئلة

### How do you make a truth table?

List every combination of the inputs by counting in binary: 2 variables give 4 rows, 3 give 8, and 6 give 64. Then evaluate the expression in each row, working from the innermost operation outward. For (A and B) or not C, the row A = 1, B = 1, C = 1 gives (1 and 1) or 0 = 1, while A = 0, B = 0, C = 1 gives 0 or 0 = 0.

### What are minterms and maxterms?

A minterm is an AND of every variable, each plain or negated, that is 1 in exactly one row; a maxterm is an OR of every variable that is 0 in exactly one row. Row numbers index them: for A, B and C, minterm 6 is A·B·C′ and maxterm 1 is (A + B + C′). A function is the OR of its minterms and, equally, the AND of its maxterms.

### What is the difference between sum of products and product of sums?

A sum of products (SOP) ORs together AND terms, one for each row where the function is 1; a product of sums (POS) ANDs together OR terms, one for each row where it is 0. A xor B is A′·B + A·B′ as a sum of products and (A + B)·(A′ + B′) as a product of sums. Both are complete; the shorter one is whichever has fewer rows to cover.

### What is a tautology in logic?

An expression that is true in every row of its truth table, whatever the inputs. A or not A, the law of excluded middle, is the simplest; (A → B) or (B → A) is another. The opposite, false in every row, is a contradiction, such as A and not A, and anything true in some rows but not others is called contingent.

### When is A implies B true?

A → B is false only when A is true and B is false; in the other three rows it is true. Its truth table therefore has minterms 0, 1 and 3 and a single maxterm, 2, and it is equivalent to not A or B and to its contrapositive, not B → not A. A chain such as A → B → C groups from the right, as A → (B → C).
