Answer:

Boolean logic is an algebra that translates signals into mathematical expressions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Boolean logic is the basis of all computing.

In Boolean algebra there are no numbers: There are logical variables, which can be either True, represented by 1, or False, represented by 0.

Computers only understand if something is on or off (1 and 0). If we consider the value of "connected" to be true, and the "Off" as false, we can create a machine capable of making decisions.

There are 3 boolean operations: The AND (and), OR (or) and NOT (negation) functions.

  • The AND function returns true if the two received values ​​are true. If one of the values, or the two values ​​is false, its result will be false.
  • The OR function returns false if the two input values ​​are false. If any input value is true, or if the 2 values ​​are true, its result will be true.
  • The NOT function receives only one value. Your answer will always be the opposite of the input: ie: NOT 1 = 0, and NOT 0 = 1.
