A set of logic operations are said to be functionally complete provided every propositional function can be expressed entirely in terms of operations in the set - i.e. by combining the various logic operations in a set one could create every truth table. Two notable sets are { NAND } and { NOR }. Such sets are also called complete sets.
Examples[edit]
The following are some examples of functionally complete sets:
Determining Completeness[edit]
- Given a set of Boolean functions
- Find at least one of each:
- Identify functional completeness.
From the table it can be seen that the following sets are functionally complete: { AND, NOT }, { OR, NOT }, { AND, OR, NOT }.
