Boolean Algebra Interview Questions
ABCD + A'BCD + ABCD' + AB(CD)'

Can you please tell me how to simplify this? I have a test so please do it quickly.

Also, if you know any tricks you have found throughout the years of solving these kind of problems I would be greatful to learn them.
i've recently been taking some computer sciences courses that were math heavy...they were explaining some abstract algebra, going into details about integer rings and the topic at hand, boolean rings...

my question is: what is the point of math beyond that level? when you start doing ring theory or any other 4th year course at a university, what do you take from it? what are mathematicians trying to prove in the big picture?

it seems as you get further and further in the math world, it simply becomes a combination of propositions, definitions, lemma, and theorem...

has math always coincided with technological advancement? is that what it is?
Find the sum-of-products expansion for the Boolean function x + y + z.
Let D42 (the 42 is subscript) = {1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42} be the divisors of 42 and let <D42, +, *, ', 1, 42> be the Boolean divisor algebra where:

a+b = lcm(a,b), a * b =gcd(a,b) and a' = 42/a

FIND: 6' +(14 * 21)'
FIND 7 * (3 + 2)'
1)- let n be an integer greater than 1 . In a ring in which x^n = x for all x , show that ab =0 implies ba=0
2)- suppose that R be a ring and that a^2 = a for all a in R . show that R is commutative . [ Aring in which a^2 = a for all a is called a boolean ring, in honor of the English mathematician George boole
I am doing programming homework and i'm not sure what to do with this boolean algebra stuff. The lesson is at school so i either need a lesson from one of you or mayb a link to one? I have been looking but cannot find anything useful...
I have this question:
E is a conjunction of all the possible divisors(factors of 30)
given a and b in E,
- a+b = Lowest common multiple of a & b
- a (dot) b = greatest common factor of a & b
- a' = 30/a

It is clear '+' is distributive and '(dot)' is associative...
Show E is a boolean algebra

I know the factors of 30 are {1,2,3,5,6,10,15,20}, but to number plus another is LCF (1+2=3...) none times the other is GCD (2*15=30)

Someone explain please?
Hi, I've just started uni this week and I chose a course called "Computer Science (Games Programming)" , but I've also been considering another option: "Games Technology with Mathematics" (I'm still allowed to switch at this point) - in this course mathematics make up 3/8ths of the degree. I haven't done maths as one of my A level subjects but after taking a BTEC NC in Engineering that includes two maths modules (Calculus, Boolean algebra, matrices, statistics .ect) and getting top marks on that course, maybe I should go for the joint maths option?

The trouble of course is that the maths could get very difficult - I don't know how well I'm going to be able to handle the 2nd and 3rd year stuff on that maths course. How important is having maths at a degree level to getting into the games industry as a programmer? How competitive are jobs for games programmers getting in the UK? Will the Computer Science qualification be enough? Also I've heard it's important to make a good demo, so I guess I need to start thinking about what sort of demo I need to make...

I'm already stressed out!
I am refering to this question.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?...

Only a handfull saw that 1+1 CAN equal 1. I was refering to boolean algebra, but it was good to see that some came up with other explanations too. That is what I was hoping for.


This question was meant to show one thing, some of you really do not have an open mind. Why do I want to show this? Because it is hard to sit back and watch you accuse others of doing something you are guilty of. You may ask, why didn't I direct this question towards Christians...well, quite honestly I don't see many of them claiming to be open minded...and if I am being really honest, I don't think most of them are. But I do think atheists should be if they make the claims that they in fact are open minded.

Now my question is to those that flat out told me I was wrong, stupid, a moron, or any other negative remark.

Do you admit that you have some work to do on opening your mind?
I've been reading some of the questions in the Engineering category, & I realize that I've forgotten more than I thought. When I was in tech school, Motorola's 68000 was the top-of-the-line microprocessor! I'm looking for any recently outdated textbooks that were used in training for an Associate Degree in Electronics Technology. This would include semi-conductors & gating devices; robotics, motors, & programmable controllers; microprocessors & PC programming; counters, timers, & registers; advanced (Boolean) algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, & computer language numbering systems. Anyone know of a school in the Louisville Metro area (KY, or southern IN) that might have what I'm looking for?
so this is the problem :
using Boolean algebra, simplify Z = (A•B)•C+A•B•C+(A)•B•C+A•(B)•C
i put parenthesis around some letter but they are not parenthesis they mean that they have the line on the top of the letter the thing is that i don't know how to do it in the computer so (A) really means A with a line on the top i hope you understand what i mean line an underline but on the top please help mee
I have gotten far in the equation, but they dont end up to what im proving so im hoping for help.

Prove the identity, using algebraic manipulation.

1. ABC' + BC'D' + BC + C'D = B + C'D

2. WY + W'YZ' + WXZ + W'XY' = WY + W'XZ' +X'YZ' + XY'Z

3. AD' +A'B + C'D + B'C = (A' +B'+ C' + D') (A + B + C +D)

if i get at least one of these, that will be great.
In boolean algebra can this be simplified?

xy' + yx'
A logic system has four inputs (A,B,C,D) and a single output (X). X is true when the
inputs are 0, 1, 2, 6, 10 and 14. Find the sum-of-products expression and minimise this
using Boolean algebra. You must draw the logic diagram for both the sum-of-products
expression and the minimised logic diagram.

Can someone solve this question for me please :)..
