Boolean Algebra: Conjuctive normal form

Featured Replies

Hi, Just need a bit of help putting things into conjugate normal form(for those who have forgoten, here's an example: [math](x+y+z)(x+y'+z')(X'+y+z')[/math])

I can manage to put things into the disjunctive n.f. easily, but for some reason am unable to change it to Conj. n.f.

Can I just use the duallity principle on the disj. n.f.?

I think I can do it by adding things like z*z', but I only seem to be able to get it to the disj. n.f.

 

Yes, I know you're probably sick of me now, asking all these questions and not putting anything else back in to the system, but there's nothing wrong with learning, nor with wanting to learn, is there?

Heh, that was irritating. I realised I'd forgoten to put up an example. Then, When I put up the example, I realised that That You can't help me If I don't show you what i'm doing wrong. And then I managed to solve every example I could think of, and all the ones in my book. Isn't it typical? You spend ages trying to figure out how to do something, and then It works first time when you show it to someone else. sorry guys...
