### Karnaugh Map for Boolean Simplification

#### Problem Statement:
Given the function F(X, Y, W, Z) represented in terms of minterms:

\[ F(X, Y, W, Z) = \pi M(0, 2, 3, 4, 9, 15) \]

This representation implies a Product of Sums (POS) expression using a Karnaugh Map.

#### Karnaugh Map Explanation:

The Karnaugh Map is structured as a 4x4 grid, corresponding to the four variables (X, Y, W, Z). Each cell represents a minterm, labelled with a decimal number.

- **Rows and Columns**: 
  - The map is divided into rows and columns based on the binary values of variables X and Y.
  - Each row entry (00, 01, 11, 10) corresponds to the binary values of WZ.
  - Each column entry (00, 01, 11, 10) corresponds to the binary values of XY.

#### Map Entries:
The map entries, labelled by decimal numbers, correspond to specific minterms:

```
        XY
     ___________
     | 00  01  11  10 
---------------------
00 | 0    1    3    2  
01 | 4    5    7    6  
11 | 12   13  15   14 
10 | 8    9   11   10 
```

- **Marked Values**: The cells corresponding to the minterms provided (0, 2, 3, 4, 9, 15) are marked for simplification.

#### Additional Note:
The handwritten text reads "Minimum sum of products", indicating that the goal is to find a simplified expression using the Karnaugh Map method.

This visualization helps in identifying the largest groupings of 1s (or marked terms) to simplify the Boolean expression using the POS method.
