Abstract
While professional digital designers use software tools to synthesize the forms of their logic functions that best fit the design constraints of their projects, studying how the mathematics behind all of this works is still valuable. It’s not the sort of thing that leads to a specific skill: no one will care at the technical interview that you’re the faster solver of six-variable K-maps in the west. Rather, it’s the sort of thing that will enable you to think about things others cannot fathom. The process of understanding—really understanding—Boolean Algebra at a deeper level will empower you in ways you cannot possibly predict.
