Truth Table

A truth table is a 2-D array with $n+1$ columns. The first $n$ columns correspond to the possible values of $n$ inputs, and the last column to the operation being performed. The rows list all possible combinations of inputs together with the corresponding outputs. For example, the following truth table shows the result of the binary And operator acting on two inputs $A$ and $B$, each of which may be true or false.

$A$ $B$ $A\land B$
F F F
F T F
T F F
T T T
