What's so logical about boolean algebra?
George Boole believed in what he called the ‘process of analysis’, that is, the process by which combinations of interpretable symbols are obtained. It is the use of these symbols according to well-determined methods of combination that he believed presented ‘true calculus’. Today, all our computers employ Boole's logic system - using microchips that contain thousands of tiny electronic switches arranged into logical ‘gates’ that produce predictable and reliable conclusions. The basic logic gates comprise of AND OR and NOT . It is these gates, used in differing combinations, that allow the computer to execute its operations using binary language. Each gate assesses various information (consisting of high or low voltages) in accordance with predetermined rules, and produces a single high or low voltage logical conclusion. The voltage itself represents the binary yes-no, true-false, zero-one concept. AND gates will only yield a TRUE result (that is, a binary 1) if all input is TRUE. Therefore, the top two gates will produce a FALSE (binary 0) result.

    Short Single Axioms for boolean algebra with {OR,NOT}. We have recently found 10short single equational axioms for boolean algebra in terms of {OR,NOT}.

(The shortest previously known single axiom has length 131 with 6 variables. Look here for details. Here is the first one we found: ~ (~ (x + y) + ~ z) + ~ (~ (~ u + u) + (~ z + x)) = z. % 13345 Basis Axioms ORs NOTs Variables The new ones Meredith Robbins The Meredith basis: ~ (~ x + y) + x = x.
    ~ (~ x + y) + (z + y) = y + (z + x).
    The Robbins basis: x + y = y + x.
    (x + y) + z = x + (y + z).
    ~ (~ (x + y) + ~ (~ x + y)) = y.
    Proofs
    With each axiom we prove the Robbins basis. Here's an Otter input file that works for 9 of the 10 axioms: ornot.in . (See notes in the file to make it work for the other one.)

Commonly, and especially in computer science and digital electronics, this term is used to mean two-valued logic . 2. This is in stark contrast with the definition used by pure mathematicians who in the 1960s introduced "Boolean-valued models " into logic precisely because a "Boolean-valued model" is an interpretation of a theory that allows more than two possible truth values! Strangely, a Boolean algebra (in the mathematical sense) is not strictly an algebra , but is in fact a lattice . A Boolean algebra is sometimes defined as a "complemented distributive lattice ". Boole's work which inspired the mathematical definition concerned algebras of set s, involving the operations of intersection, union and complement on sets. Such algebras obey the following identities where the operators ^, V, - and constants 1 and can be thought of either as set intersection, union, complement, universal, empty; or as two-valued logic AND, OR, NOT, TRUE, FALSE; or any other conforming system. a ^ b = b ^ a a V b = b V a (commutative laws) (a ^ b) ^ c = a ^ (b ^ c) (a V b) V c = a V (b V c) (associative laws) a ^ (b V c) = (a ^ b) V (a ^ c) a V (b ^ c) = (a V b) ^ (a V c) (distributive laws) a ^ a = a a V a = a (idempotence laws) a = a -(a ^ b) = (-a) V (-b) -(a V b) = (-a) ^ (-b) (de Morgan's laws) a ^ -a = a V -a = 1 a ^ 1 = a a V = a a ^ = a V 1 = 1 -1 = -0 = 1 There are several common alternative notations for the "-" or

    Boolean Algebra
    A set with n elements has 2 n different subsets, including the empty set and I itself ( each either belongs to the subset or does not belong). The Boolean algebra B n consists of these 2 n subsets with the operations of union , intersection , and complement - (the complement of X is also written ). Examples of rules that are valid for any X Y Z are Every Boolean equation is equivalent to its dual, in which the operations of union and intersection are interchanged and simultaneously all variables are complemented. For example, is equivalent to B is also called propositional calculus. It is the calculus of truth values (0 = false, I = 1 = true, = or, = and, - = not). Boolean variables and operations can be used in high-level programming languages (TRUE, FALSE, OR, AND, NOT, sometimes XOR). Sometimes the rules of Boolean algebra can also be used to simplify considerably the logic of a complicated sequence of tests. A much more complete discussion of Boolean algebra can be found by looking in The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing.

    From Boolean Algebra to Unified Algebra
    ERIC C. R. HEHNER Boolean algebra is simpler than number algebra, with appli-cations in programming, circuit design, law, specifications, mathematical proof, and reasoning in any domain. So why is number algebra taught in primary school and used routinely by scientists, engineers, economists, and the general public, while boolean algebra is not taught until the university level, and not routinely used by anyone? A large part of the answer may be in the terminology and symbols used, and in the ex-planations of boolean algebra found in textbooks. The sub-ject has not yet freed itself from its history and philosophy. This paper points out some of the problems delaying the accep-tance and use of boolean algebra, and suggests some solutions.

These states are also given the names True and False respectively. Notice, that there isn't a ½, a half on, or a maybe true. This is Digital Logic (Digital because it can be completely described in digits). The logic we are more used to is Analogue Logic, where between any two states there exists infinitely many more states. An example is our way of counting . We are used to dealing with 'shades of Grey'. A computer does not do this. By using Digital Logic, we can set up a series of simple rules, by which everything can be defined. We can also use these rules to reason in a strictly rational way, without the constaints of emotion etc. Sounds great doesn't it? In practise, however, we will be using this logic (called Boolean Algebra) to solve very simple problems.

      Introduction
      In working with logic relations in digital form, we need a set of rules for symbolic manipulation which will enable us to simplify complex expressions and solve for unknowns. Originally, Boolean algebra which was formulated by George Boole , an English mathematician (1815-1864) described propositions whose outcome would be either true or false . In computer work it is used in addition to describe circuits whose state can be either 1 (true) or (false) .Using the relations defined in the AND, OR and NOT operation, a number of postulates are stated in Table 2.1 [Ref.3]

So there are several varieties of Boolean algebras, just as there are different kinds of dogs. Now let's take a look at some of the dogs ... I mean Boolean algebras! The main idea for any Boolean algebra is that elements of a set of elements are to be operated on, and there are operators to do the operating. Dogs have fleas and you have to dig them out. But that's true of every system all animals have fleas. So we have to be more specific about the elements and about the operators. The main thing to understand is that the elements might be structured simply as a list. You define the class by saying what or who the members are. In school algebra, for instance, the elements are
