~~NAND and NOR are swapped. Pretty good otherwise πŸ˜„~~

Huh, it's actually correct. I remembered the logic gates but not how they translate to words, heh.

Here's how it works. Thanks to everyone who pointed it out. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Morgan's_laws

NAND = ¬(A ∧ B) = ¬A ∨ ¬B = Not A or Not B

NOR = ¬(A ∨ B) = ¬A ∧ ¬B = Not A and Not B

You have disappointed De Morgan

Nope, looks like they DeMorganed to avoid parenthesis

(Oops, didn’t realize 5 other people said the same thing! I don’t think my client loaded all the comments the first time.)

Yeah otherwise the nomenclature would not make sense

Edit: I take it back, it's properly swapped, I thought it wasn't.

FYI : a nor b = not a and not b, and vice versa for nand

I was about to comment the same.

I understand this meme because of Minecraft redstone.

I'll be in the corner picking my nose if anyone needs anything.

🎀 Tap, tap, is this thing on? Posting again, even though this joke is probably only for me.

Presumably, this is F W DeMorgan's Law.
