logic-gates

A simple package introducing logic gates.

Installation

$ npm install @jaimermxd/logic-gates

Usage

const { AndGate, and, not, NotGate } = require("@jaimermxd/logic-gates");

// Basic gate usage

let andGate = AndGate.create([true, false, true, false, false]);
console.log(andGate.input); // [ true, false, true, false, false ]
console.log(andGate.output); // false

let shortAndGate = and([true, true, true]);
console.log(shortAndGate); // true

let shortNotGate = not([false, true, true, true, false, true]);
console.log(shortNotGate); // [ true, false, false, false, true, false ]

// Truth tables

let xorGate = XorGate.create([false, true]);
console.log(xorGate.truthTable); // [ [ false, false, false ], [ false, true, true ], [ true, false, true ], [ true, true, false ] ]

let xorTruthTable = XorGate.getTruthTable(2);
console.log(xorTruthTable); // [ [ false, false, false ], [ false, true, true ], [ true, false, true ], [ true, true, false ] ]

Documentation

Every gate is a class extending BaseGate, and can be created in two different ways:

• Using the class' create() method
• Using the gate's function

When creating a gate using the first method, you can access all three of the resulting object's properties (input, output and truthTable). However, when using the second method, the output property's value is the one accessed.

Gate methods

• static create(input)

  Parameter	Type	Default	Description
  input	boolean[]	none	The input or inputs the gate will have.

  Returns: gate object

• static getTruthTable(inputs)

  parameter	Type	Default	Description
  inputs	number	2	The number of inputs the gate will have.

  Returns: truth table

Gate structure

{
  input: boolean[],
  output: boolean | boolean[],
  truthTable: Array<(boolean | boolean[])[]>
}

Truth table structure

[
  [ ...input, output ],
  [ ...input, output ],
  ...
]
