Logic is the main essence of human reasoning. English Scientist and Logician George Boole (1815-1864) initiated the idea of a structure which is based upon some reasoning of difference occurrence in the Universe. Professor Boole wrote a book entitled “The Laws of Thought” which was collection of his papers on such type of reasoning. In this book he formulated a structure upon the interrelationship of element. After his name the structure is known as Boolean Structure. In this paper we present a somewhat different formulation of a Boolean Structure. Further it has been shown in the paper that Associative Laws in a Boolean structure follow from the other axioms of the same i.e., in other words it may be stated that the axiom of Associative Laws in the definition of a Boolean algebra is redundant.

Abstract


Logic is the main essence of human reasoning. English Scientist and Logician George Boole (1815-1864) initiated the idea of a structure which is based upon some reasoning of difference occurrence in the Universe. Professor Boole wrote a book entitled “The Laws of Thought” which was collection of his papers on such type of reasoning. In this book he formulated a structure upon the interrelationship of element. After his name the structure is known as Boolean Structure. In this paper we present a somewhat different formulation of a Boolean Structure. Further it has been shown in the paper that Associative Laws in a Boolean structure follow from the other axioms of the same i.e., in other words it may be stated that the axiom of Associative Laws in the definition of a Boolean algebra is redundant.
