From an engineer: the triangle portion of the not gate is actually just a buffer; it’s the little circle on the tip that does the inversion. You can add a little circle to the and & or gates also to make them nand and nor gates. Finally, there is also an xor gate that looks like an or gate but has a double line on the input side. Buffers are used in circuits to restore the proper voltage after propagation through many gates has reduced the signal.
For people taking a digital circuits class, I recommend creating the circuits by starting with the output (as opposed to inputs). In the example given here, you can start with an OR gate and then connect it to the two AND gates. Just makes it easier down the road I feel.
For those interested: There is a cool game for Android (not sure if it exists for iPhone as well) called "Make it true". If you're an electronics nerd or geek, you'll probably like it. It's about making logic circuits true, setting (or flipping) as few bits as possible.
I am sure there is software to do this, may be a Python library just for logic circuits? Thanks for the lecture, I hadn't seen this stuff since high school.
Hello, can you please share your sources or books that you use for your tutorials so that i can reference from them. I have an assignment on Boolean Algebra and i need good books to reference from especially the ones you use because you simplify things, which i love btw.

Is a buffer something physical then? I mean, is it a kind of electronic component?
Thanks for the comment!

Thank you, this is very clear.
the or gate shall now be named "the equalizer"
the and gate is from now on known as "Libra"
When I get glasses and contacts I would love to check this out later.❤
Humble reminder

big help🥰
Thanks a lot!
Is there a difference between logic circuits and logic gates
Thank you a lot
Thanks alot
I am following u from Turkiye
bro u spelled it wrong fix it

The course uses "Discrete Mathematics and its applications" by Rosen
The book is "How to draw dicks" by Dick Harrington
