AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on analyzing a circuit and filling in the F column values of a truth table. The initial submission of truth values for F was incorrect, as the user mistakenly evaluated the expressions. The correct expression for F is given as F = (xy) ⊕ (x ⊕ z). After reevaluating the truth table with this expression, the user provided the corrected values, highlighting the importance of accurately following the logical operations in the circuit analysis. The user acknowledges the error in their previous calculations and expresses gratitude for the assistance received.

Just need someone to check my work.

My Answer:
  • X Y Z | F
  • 0 0 0 | 0
  • 0 0 1 | 0
  • 0 1 0 | 0
  • 0 1 1 | 0
  • 1 0 0 | 0
  • 1 0 1 | 0
  • 1 1 0 | 0
  • 1 1 1 | 1

(By the way not sure why my phone is rotating all my pictures, apologies in advance).

Assuming you meant that $F=(xy) \oplus (x \oplus z),$ where the $\oplus$ symbol stands for "exclusive OR", then I get the following (building up the truth table from the beginning):
$$
\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c|c}
x &y &z &xy &x \oplus z &(xy) \oplus(x \oplus z)\\ \hline
0 &0 &0 &0 &0 &0 \\
0 &0 &1 &0 &1 &1 \\
0 &1 &0 &0 &0 &0 \\
0 &1 &1 &0 &1 &1 \\
1 &0 &0 &0 &1 &1 \\
1 &0 &1 &0 &0 &0 \\
1 &1 &0 &1 &1 &0 \\
1 &1 &1 &1 &0 &1
\end{array}
$$
 
I'm a moron. I was evaluating xy then evaluating y ⊕ z. I see the problem now. Thanks for the help Ach!
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
