Another neat thing about boolean algebra is, if you replace every "and" with a multiply, and every "or" with an addtion, and do the appropiate things with negation, you can evaluate the expression using regular numerical algebra.
Example:
~AB + A~B + AB + ~A~B should be TRUE (you can verify this using the distributive property)
Now we apply normal math to it:
For A and B both TRUE (TRUE = 1)
=~1*1 + 1*~1 + 1*1 + ~1*~1
=0*1 + 1*0 + 1*1 + 0*0
=1
You can verify this works with any combination of A or B.
Another example:
take the expression A+B+C+D, with A=B=C=D=TRUE
Evaluating the expression gives you 1+1+1+1 = 4, which is equivalent to TRUE
You may be thinking, hmm, 4 is not TRUE or FALSE, but remember, in a lot of programming languages, 0 is FALSE, and anything else is TRUE.
