                                                           PART I (20 Marks)
                                                          Answer all questions.
                                 While answering questions in this Part, indicate briefly your working and reasoning,
                                                           wherever required.
              Question 1.
                    (i)  Which Boolean law states  (A+B).A=A                                                        [1]
                       (a)  Distributive                   (b)  Commutative
                       (c)  Absorption                     (d)  Associative
                   (ii)  Assertion: XNOR gate is complement of XOR gate                                             [1]
                       Reasoning: Because applying De Morgan’s Law we get (A'.B+AB')' = (A+B').(A'+B)
                       Which of the following options is correct?
                       (a)  Both Assertion and Reasoning are true and Reasoning is the correct explanation of Assertion
                       (b)  Both Assertion and Reasoning are true but Reasoning is not the correct explanation of Assertion
                       (c)   Assertion is true but Reasoning is false
                       (d)  Both Assertion and Reasoning is false
                   (iii)  Assertion: If A=“It is cloudy” B=“It will rain”                                           [1]
                       then converse of the conditional is “If  it is not cloudy then it will not rain”
                       Reasoning: Inverse  of a conditional is obtained by interchanging negated antecedent and negated consequent
                       Which of the following options is correct ?
                       (a)  Both Assertion and Reasoning are true and R is the correct explanation for A
                       (b)  Both Assertion and Reasoning are true and R is not the correct explanation for A
                       (c)   Assertion is True but Reasoning is False
                       (d)  Assertion is false but Reasoning is True
                   (iv)  The dual of the Boolean expression (X.Y)'+X'.Y'.0=(X.Y)' is                                [1]
                       (a)  (X+Y)'.(X'+Y'+1)= (X+Y)'       (b)   (X+Y)'.(X'+Y') +1 = (X+Y)'
                       (c)  (X+Y).(X+Y+1)=(X+Y)            (d)  (X+Y)'.(X'+Y').0= (X+Y)'
                   (v)  If A=0 B=1 C=1 D=1 then its maxterm is                                                      [1]
                       (a)  A+B'+C'+D                      (b)  A.B'.C'.D
                       (c)  (A'+B+C+D')                    (d)   A'.B.C.D'
                   (vi)  The complement of the boolean expression is X.Y’.Z+X.Y+Y.Z’ is                             [1]
                       (a)  (X+Y+Z).(X'+Y').(Y'+Z)         (b)  (X'+Y+Z').(X'+Y').(Y'+Z)
                       (c)  (X'+Y+Z').(X+Y).(Y'+Z)         (d)  (X+Y+Z).(X'+Y').(Y+Z')
                  (vii)  What is the use of continue statement in a loop.                                           [1]
                  (viii)  Why variables are called identifiers.                                                     [1]
