Boolean Oracle

This web server computes a minimal Boolean formula for a given function, using the operator sets (AND, OR, XOR) and (AND, OR).



Query: x+y+z+w+v in 1,3 || x&y&z&w&!v (truth table 0x56696996, canonical 0x1669e996)


A minimal Boolean formula using AND, OR, and XOR requires 7 operators. One such formula is:

z ^ ¬x ^ ¬y ^ ¬v ^ (¬w | (x & y & z))




A minimal Boolean formula using AND and OR requires 28 operators. One such formula is:

((¬v | z) & (x | ((¬y | ¬w) & (y | w))) & ((w & y & ¬v) | ((v | ¬z) & (¬x | (¬y & ¬w))))) | ((v | z) & (¬x | ((¬y | ¬w) & (y | w))) & (¬v | ¬z) & (x | (y & w) | (¬y & ¬w)))
