Which operation is represented by a dot or absence of an operator?
- AND
- OR
- NOT
- NAND
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. AND
The AND operation in Boolean algebra is written with a dot (A.B) or simply by juxtaposition (AB).

Which of the following gates are the basic building blocks of digital computer?
- Simple gates
- Logic gates
- Arithmetic logical unit
- Control unit
Show answer and explanation
Answer: B. Logic gates
Logic gates (AND, OR, NOT, etc.) are the basic building blocks used to construct all digital circuits.
Which Boolean expression correctly represents an AND gate?
- A . B
- A + B
- A ⊕ B
- A′
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. A . B
AND is expressed as the product A.B.
Which Boolean expression correctly represents an AND gate?
- A . B
- A + B
- A ⊕ B
- A′
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. A . B
AND is written as a product: F = A.B (or simply AB).
Describe the following three basic logical gates: (a) AND (b) OR (c) NOT.
Show model answer
(a) AND gate: gives output HIGH (1) only when all of its inputs are HIGH; F = A.B.
(b) OR gate: gives output HIGH (1) when at least one of its inputs is HIGH; F = A+B.
(c) NOT gate: has a single input and simply inverts it — HIGH becomes LOW and LOW becomes HIGH; F = A′.
Difference between AND and NAND gate.
Show model answer
AND gate: output F=A.B is 1 only when all inputs are 1, otherwise 0.
NAND gate: output F=(A.B)′ is the exact opposite — 0 only when all inputs are 1, otherwise 1. NAND is simply AND followed by a NOT (inverted output).
