What is Boolean Algebra? What are its rules?

                 BOLLEAN ALGEBRA

Boolean Algebra is used to analyze and simplify the digital (logic) circuits. It uses only the binary numbers i.e. 0 and 1. It is also called as Binary Algebra or logical Algebra. Boolean algebra was invented by George Boole in 1854.

Rule in Boolean Algebra

Following are the important rules used in Boolean algebra.

1) Variable used can have only two values. Binary 1 for HIGH and Binary 0 for LOW.

2) Complement of a variable is represented by an overbar (-). Thus, complement of variable B is represented as . Thus if B = 0 then  = 1 and B = 1 then  = 0.

3) ORing of the variables is represented by a plus (+) sign between them. For example ORing of A, B, C is represented as A + B + C.

4) Logical ANDing of the two or more variable is represented by writing a dot between them such as A.B.C. Sometime the dot may be omitted like ABC.

QBASIC

                         QBASIC QBasic , a short form of  Quick Beginners All purpose Symbolic Instruction Code , is an  integrated development environment  and  interpreter  for a variety of  BASIC programming languages  which are based on  QuickBASIC . Code entered into the IDE is compiled to an  intermediate representation , and this  IR  is immediately interpreted on demand within the IDE. [1]  It can run under nearly all versions of  DOS  and 32-bit versions of  Windows , or through emulation via  DOSBox / DOSEMU  on  Linux ,  FreeBSD , and 64-bit versions of Windows. [2]  (QBasic is a DOS program and requires DOS or a DOS emulator. Windows XP comes with an emulator called DOS Virtual Machine, subsequent versions of Windows require an emulator such as DosBox.) For its time, QBasic provided a state-of-the-art IDE, including a  debugger  with features such as on-the-fly expression evaluation and code modification. It supports various inbuilt functions.
