What defines a 'true' statement in logical terms?
Click to flip
A statement is 'true' if it accurately reflects reality or facts.
Click to flip
In logic, what is a 'false' statement?
Click to flip
A 'false' statement is one that does not accurately reflect reality or facts.
Click to flip
How can you use the truth table to determine the truth value of expressions?
Click to flip
A truth table lists all possible values of variables and shows the resulting truth value of the logical expressions.
Click to flip
What is a tautology in logic?
Click to flip
A tautology is a statement that is always true, regardless of the truth values of its components.
Click to flip
What is a contradiction in logical terms?
Click to flip
A contradiction is a statement that is always false, regardless of the truth values of its components.
Click to flip
How do you determine the truth value of a compound statement?
Click to flip
The truth value of a compound statement is determined by the truth values of its components and the logical connectors used.
Click to flip
What is the role of conditional statements in logic?
Click to flip
Conditional statements assess the truth based on an 'if-then' scenario, true unless a true premise leads to a false conclusion.
Click to flip
Why are true/false statements important in computer programming?
Click to flip
True/false statements, or booleans, help in decision-making processes through logical operations and conditional branching.
Click to flip
What does a 'true' result mean in a computer science context?
Click to flip
In computer science, 'true' typically means that a condition has been met or an expression evaluates as correct, often represented by a '1'.
Click to flip
What does a 'false' outcome signify in computer operations?
Click to flip
In computer science, 'false' usually indicates that a condition hasn't been met or an expression evaluates as incorrect, often represented by a '0'.
Click to flip
How does the Boolean data type function in programming languages?
Click to flip
A Boolean data type holds one of two possible values: true or false, used for control structures like loops and if-statements.
Click to flip
What is a boolean expression in programming?
Click to flip
A Boolean expression is an expression that evaluates to either true or false.
Click to flip
What is the significance of boolean operators in computer science?
Click to flip
Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) are used to form complex conditional statements essential for control flow in programs.
Click to flip
Translate 'true' into Ukrainian.
Click to flip
True in Ukrainian is "правда" (pravda).
Click to flip
Translate 'false' into Ukrainian.
Click to flip
False in Ukrainian is "неправда" (nepravda).
Click to flip
What is the significance of true/false questions in assessments?
Click to flip
True/false questions are used to quickly assess knowledge, but they require careful reading to avoid incorrect assumptions.
Click to flip
How does the logical operator AND function with true and false values?
Click to flip
The AND operator results in true only if both operands are true; otherwise, it results in false.
Click to flip
How does the logical operator OR function with true and false values?
Click to flip
The OR operator results in true if at least one operand is true; otherwise, it results in false.
Click to flip
What is the role of the NOT operator in logical expressions?
Click to flip
The NOT operator inverts the truth value of its operand, turning true to false and vice versa.
Click to flip
Provide an example of how true/false logic is applied in everyday technology.
Click to flip
Digital circuits use simple true/false conditions (1 and 0) to perform calculations and make decisions, like turning a light on/off.
