SUMMARY

The discussion clarifies the definitions of "AND" and "OR" in the context of boolean logic. "AND" is defined as a binary operation where the output is true only if both inputs are true, as demonstrated by its truth table. Conversely, "OR" is a binary operation that yields true if at least one of the inputs is true. The truth tables provided illustrate these operations clearly, confirming their fundamental roles in logical expressions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of boolean logic
  • Familiarity with binary operations
  • Basic knowledge of truth tables
  • Experience with logical expressions in programming
NEXT STEPS
  • Study boolean algebra and its applications in programming
  • Learn about logical operators in Python, specifically "and" and "or"
  • Explore the use of boolean logic in SQL queries
  • Investigate the implications of boolean logic in decision-making algorithms
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for computer science students, software developers, and anyone interested in understanding the fundamentals of boolean logic and its applications in programming and data manipulation.

If you mean AND and OR in the boolean sense, then I think you can define them as binary operations with the following truth table:

0 AND 0 = 0
0 AND 1 = 0
1 AND 0 = 0
1 AND 1 = 1

0 OR 0 = 0
0 OR 1 = 1
1 OR 0 = 1
1 OR 1 = 1
