A boolean function is a function that only works with values that can only have two values, often called "true" and "false", or alternately, "1" and "0".
Algebra is a very broad topic covering all sorts of things, including Boolean algebra. Boolean algebra in itself is the study of a variable called "Boolean." This variable can only take two values: true and false. See 'related links' for more information.
Boolean algebra differs in a major way from ordinary algebra in that boolean constants and variable are allowed to have only two possible values 0 or 1. A Boolean variable is a quantity that may at different times be equal to either 0 or 1. Boolean algebra is used to express the effects that various digital circuits have on logic inputs, and to manipulate logic variable for the purpose of determination of the best method for performing a given circuit function. Because of possibility of only two variables boolean algebra is relatively easy to work with as compared to ordinary algebra. It have only 3 basic operations: 1. Logical Addition- OR 2. Logical Multiplication- AND 3. Logical Complimentation- NOT
Boolean searches allow you to combine words and phrases using the words AND, OR, NOT and NEAR (otherwise known as Boolean operators) to limit, widen, or define your search. Most Internet search engines and Web directories default to these Boolean search parameters anyway, but a good Web searcher should know how to use basic Boolean operators.
The prototypical Boolean algebra; i.e. the Boolean algebra defined over the Boolean domain, has two elements in it: 0 and 1. For more information about Boolean algebra, please refer to the related link below.
A Boolean variable is a variable from Boolean algebra having one of only two values.
True and False.
Two, True or False.
A table of logic, or truth table, lists the possible combination of truth values for boolean (logical, two-valued) variables.

Logical operators don't Compare values they combine Boolean values and produce a Boolean result. Examples of logical operators are && (and), , (or), ! (not). If you have two Boolean values and you combined them with the && operator the result will be (TRUE) only if both values were (TRUE). Relational operators compare two values and produce a Boolean result. Most of the time we use logical operators to combine the results of two or more comparison expressions that use relational operators.
That's the boolean "or" operator. It calculates a result based on two boolean values. The result is false if both starting values are false; in all other cases, the result is true.

In Electrical and Computer Engineering there is a particular kind of mathematics dealing with "logical expressions." This math is usually referred to as Boolean Algebra, the && represents the logical AND gate. This operator is used to compare two values (usually in binary algebra, which is Boolean Algebra on a base 2 number system, such as binary (the language of electronics and computers), a system with only 1 and 0 as possible values; or Boolean using true and false), an expression will be true only when both values are both true. i.e.: Will use Boolean for this system (only true or false are possible values). If we have an expression such as: y = a && b; whereas y, a, and b are variables which can equal only 0 (false) or 1 (true). You have these possible outcome combinations: | y | a | b | | 0 | 0 | 0 | | 0 | 0 | 1 | | 0 | 1 | 0 | | 0 | 1 | 1 |
In Java, such a data type is called boolean. In other programming languages it may be known by different names, including variations of "boolean" such as "bool", and "logical".
