Closure: the result of any Boolean operation is in B = {0, 1} 2. Identity element with respect to + is 0: T+0=0+ T= T

Cox – Spring 2010 The University Of Alabama in Hunt sville Computer Science Boolean Algebra The algebraic system usually used to work with binary logic expressions Postulates: 1. Closure: Any defined operation on (0, 1) gives (0,1) 2. Identity: 0 + x = x ; 1 x = x 3. Commutative: x + y = y + x ; xy ...
