Logic Circuits

Even though computers can do everything from fly spaceships to play the latest Youtube videos, they are not very smart. Computers are only able to very simple operations millions or billions of times a second, which is fast enough to combine these many operations to do complex things. The basic way in which computers look at data are called logical circuits. Logical circuits are a type of ​boolean expression​​, meaning that they produce one of two values; such as true/false, yes/no, or 1/0. Each logical gate takes two boolean values as an input, and will produce a boolean value as an output which corresponds to the type of logical gate and the supplied input. An ​And Gate ​​outputs “True” only if both the A and B inputs are also “True”, else outputing “False.” This can be represented using the following table.
