An introduction A statement is true if it agrees with reality,

An introduction

A statement is true if it agrees with reality, false

if it doesn’t.
Two-state logic assumes that each statement is either true or false.
The Greeks, especially Aristotle, worked out the theory of two-state logic in great detail.
In 1854, George Boole came up with symbolic logic, better known as the Boolean Algebra. Boolean algebra uses letters and symbols to represent statements and their logical connections.
Each variable in Boolean algebra has either of two values: true or false. (this is why it is called a two-state or binary algebra)
Boolean algebra was a far-out subject until 1938, when Claude Shannon used it to analyze and design telephone switching circuits.
“He let the variables represents closed and open relays.
Boolean algebra has become one of the major design tools of digital and computer electronics

When to use Boolean Algebra? At least one (1) or more

When to use Boolean Algebra?

At least one (1) or more inputs

of either logic 1 (true) or logic 0 (false) and a single desired output (either a 1 or a 0, depending on the inputs)
Examples:
F = a+b
F = a*b
F = (a+b)*c’
F = abc’+(bd)’+ab+a’cd
Note that inputs a, b, c, and d should have a value either a logic 1 or logic 0 and the output F should acquire a value either 1 and 0.
