Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduce concept

K-map or Karnaugh map

  • K-map or Karnaugh map is a well-known diagramatic method for simplifying Boolean expressions.
  • By using k-maps, it is easy to deliver simplified solution.
  • One of the main advantages of K-map is that it is less complex and easier to  understand the logic.
  • Based on the number of variables, the structure of map varies. 
  • The most commonly used K-maps are 3-variable k-map (consisting of 8 squares) and 4-variable k-map (consisting of 16 squares).
