Example 2: NOT(A) AND B
This circuit inverts input A (using NOT gate) then combines it with B using an AND gate.
| A | B | NOT A (intermediate) |
NOT(A) AND B (final output) |
| 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
NOT A column: Flips A's value (0→1, 1→0)
Final output: Only 1 when NOT(A) is 1 AND B is 1 - that's row 2 only
In plain English: Output is 1 only when "A is false AND B is true"
