K-map using c++(Mini Project)

The Karnaugh map, also known as a Veitch diagram (KV-map or K-map for short), is a tool to facilitate the simplification of Boolean algebraic expressions. The Karnaugh map reduces the need for extensive calculations by taking advantage of human pattern-recognition and permitting the rapid identification and elimination of potential race hazards. The Karnaugh map was invented in 1952 by Edward W. Veitch. It was further developed in 1953 by Maurice Karnaugh, a telecommunications engineer at Bell Labs, to help simplify digital electronic circuits. In a Karnaugh map the Boolean variables are transferred (generally from a truth table) and ordered according to the principles of Gray code in which only one variable changes in between squares. Once the table is generated and the output possibilities are transcribed, the data is arranged into the largest even group possible and the minterm is generated though the axiom laws of Boolean algebra
