Boolean Algebra
The Boolean algebra was developed by
the English mathematician George Boole; it deals with statements in
mathematical logic, and puts them in the form of algebraic equations. The
Boolean algebra was further developed by the modern American mathematician
Claude Shannon, in order to apply it to computers. The basic techniques
described by Shannon were adopted almost universally for the design and
analysis of switching circuits. Because of the analogous relationship between
the actions of relays, and of modern electronic circuits,...
