Python Truth Table

What is a Truth Table?

A truth table is a table that displays the logical operations on input signals in a table format.

• Remember || means OR.

import itertools

# Define the variables (A, B, C), 3 in this case
variables = ['A', 'B']

# Use itertools.product to generate the truth table
truth_table_itertools = list(itertools.product([False, True], repeat=len(variables)))

# Print the truth table
print("|   A   |   B   |  A AND B  |  A OR B  |")
print("----------------------------------------")
for table in truth_table_itertools:
    print("| "+ str(table[0]) + " | " + str(table[1]) + " | " + str(table[0] and table[1]) + " |" + str(table[0] or table[1]) + " |")

|   A   |   B   |  A AND B  |  A OR B  |
----------------------------------------
| False | False | False |False |
| False | True | False |True |
| True | False | False |True |
| True | True | True |True |
