Abstract

The logical data type was introduced in Chapter 4 for decision making in program flow control. In this chapter, the fundamentals of Boolean algebra, which work with logical variables, were presented. It was shown that a Boolean function corresponding to a truth table can be written by inspection of the table. MATLAB was used to evaluate Boolean functions. Boolean algebra was applied to design a logic circuit for binary addition, and with MATLAB the logic circuit was simulated.
