Enter the maxterm numbers.

F= ∏

2-Var

3-Var

4-Var

5-Var

The truth table of F = ∏(2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 14) is illustrated below.

SOLUTION

The function has 4 variables. Find the 4-bit binary equivalents of the maxterm numbers.

2₁₀ = 0010₂
3₁₀ = 0011₂
5₁₀ = 0101₂
6₁₀ = 0110₂
7₁₀ = 0111₂
14₁₀ = 1110₂

Write a value of 0 for the rows corresponding to the binary variable values above and a value of 1 for the others.

INFORMATION

Maxterm numbers depict the locations of 0s in the truth table. Converting a minterm number to binary reveals the values of variables in the row with F = 0 in the truth table. For instance, in a 4-variable function with variables A, B, C, and D, if the maxterm list includes the number 5, it implies that the row in the truth table corresponding to the variable values (A, B, C, D) = (0, 1, 0, 1) is 0. This is because the binary representation of 5 is 101 and the same number can be written as 0101 in 4-bits. Each bit in this representation corresponds to the value of one variable in the truth table.

INPUT FORMAT

Enter the maxterms separated by commas or spaces.
