XNOR construido con AND, OR y NOT

XNOR(A, B) comparado con (A AND B) OR (NOT A AND NOT B): la igualdad de dos bits construida con los operadores básicos. La equivalencia se cumple en las cuatro filas; la forma solo con NOR necesita 5 compuertas frente a 11 con NAND.

XNOR es la prueba de igualdad: verdadero cuando las entradas coinciden, ambas verdaderas o ambas falsas. Escritos, esos son los dos casos que enumera la fórmula construida. La lectura del motor de XNOR(A, B) dice que same_value es verdadero exactamente cuando A y B tienen el mismo valor. En la tabla de cuatro filas la salida es verdadera en las filas 0 y 3, Σm(0, 3), y la forma construida tiene la misma columna; es el complemento de la columna de la página del XOR.

La equivalencia se cumple: same_value y built coinciden en todas las filas. XNOR no es tautología, contraejemplo A = FALSO, B = VERDADERO; satisfacible, testigo A = FALSO, B = FALSO. El simplificador no encontró ninguna ley aplicable. El conversor a formas normales aplica una eliminación de XNOR: la FND es built, (A AND B) OR (NOT A AND NOT B), y la FNC es (A OR NOT B) AND (NOT A OR B), cuatro literales cada una. El mapa dibuja grupos de una celda en las celdas 0 y 3, dos implicantes primos. Compuertas: 5 NOR frente a 11 NAND.

La igualdad de bits es la salida central del comparador y el bloque de la página de igualdad de dos bits, donde dos XNOR se unen con AND. En código la función es a == b sobre booleanos, y por eso la FNC, «A implica B y B implica A», es también la definición del bicondicional. Lo que hay que vigilar es la colisión de nombres: XNOR, equivalencia y <-> son la misma función de dos entradas, mientras que == en algunos lenguajes es otra cosa cuando los operandos no son booleanos.

"""Tangibool evaluator (decision model).

Generated deterministically from the validated Boolean model; it evaluates exactly that
model. It does not establish that the model is a complete, legal, or safe statement of a
real-world rule, and evaluating examples does not verify the rule.

Source revision: reference
Interpretation status: not stated
Exporter: 1.0.0 (format tangibool.python/1; engine 1.0.0; semantics tangibool-semantics/1)

Inputs (dict keys, declared order) and generated parameter names:
    'A' -> input_A
    'B' -> input_B

Outputs (declared order) and their functions:
    'same_value' -> output_same_value(inputs)
    'built' -> output_built(inputs)

Assumptions (the declared scope, checked by in_scope(inputs)):
    none; every complete assignment is in scope.

Input contract:
    Every required input must be exactly True or False (type(value) is bool). Missing
    inputs, None, strings, integers (including 0 and 1), and keys that are not declared
    inputs raise InputError before anything is evaluated, including inputs that a
    short-circuiting operator would never read. Results are always bool.

Scope:
    Decision functions raise OutOfScopeError when the inputs violate an assumption; an
    out-of-scope assignment is never turned into a False result. Pass check_scope=False
    to evaluate without the scope check, and use in_scope(inputs) to test it separately.

Usage:

    import tangibool_model as model

    model.evaluate({'A': False, 'B': False})
    # -> {'same_value': True, 'built': True}
    model.output_same_value({'A': False, 'B': False})
    # -> True
    model.evaluate({'A': 1, 'B': False})
    # raises InputError: 1 is an int, not a bool

El error habitual

Negar el XOR a mano y equivocarse de casos: (A AND NOT B) OR (NOT A AND B) con los NOT movidos sigue siendo XOR si solo se invierte un caso. XNOR necesita las dos entradas iguales en cada término, A AND B o NOT A AND NOT B; las filas 0 y 3 de la tabla son la comprobación.

Preguntas

¿XNOR es lo mismo que el bicondicional A <-> B?

Con dos entradas, sí: los dos son verdaderos exactamente cuando A y B tienen el mismo valor, las filas 0 y 3 de la tabla. El motor conserva las dos grafías como operadores distintos, y la ley de eliminación del bicondicional reescribe <-> en la misma forma AND-OR de dos términos que se muestra aquí.
