[Opinion]Boolean Algebra
Does anybody else hate learning it? I've read the chapter over boolean algebra in my ASM ebook and it really sucks. Was anybody else as confused as me first learning it?
[Opinion]Boolean Algebra
Boolean Logic is simple. Yeh if you right it out in a bunch of symbols, but if you say it out loud its so easy.
Maybe it's just me getting hung up on the lack of numbers. I'm fine with math but I like to have some numbers to use.
Logic is the main "Hidden" core behind every programming language. It is more direct in VB , but it is always there.
I personally love Logic, Especially those Puzzle books.

Now that I'm looking at it in review it isn't too bad. It was just getting though it the first time. Especially when it started talking about NAND gates to create other gates from.
VB? Really? I didn't use a whole lot of boolean stuff in VB. I think it's going to be more useful in ASM when I have to control everything. Sure, it would sure help to optimize loops and things in other languages but that's about all I can think of.

Boolean is found through out the entire language, you just wouldn't know it by looking. But it's there, and important. But I was referring to logic in general
Well I know it's there since everything can and must be converted into systems of boolean equations to run on the circuits but I was thinking visually. Thanks though.
Logic is important to all programming. I don't like learning logic in school either they create a bunch of useless terms and come up with things like linked lists, tree diagrams, and little Oh notation. Instead of just teaching the basic stuff in plain English. Personally I think all the effort creating a formal math and notation for logic only complicates things.
In my book (I'm doing assembly freelance, not at school) it's talked about different postulates and theorums, simplification, the minterm method, cononical form, product of maxterms, boolean functions with electrical engineering, different gates, combinatorial circuits, half-adders, full-adders, and embedded systems.
