kmap

A program for generating k-maps based on user input.

EXAMPLES

> kmap
  
  What is the size of the k-map? (3): 
  3
  What are the arguments to the k-map?: 
  0,1,6,7
  What are the don`t care conditions of of the k-map?:
  2, 4
  
                y
    -----------------
    | 1 | 1 | 0 | X |
    -----------------
  x | X | 0 | 1 | 1 |
    -----------------
            z

> kmap -s 2 -a '1, 2' -dc ''
          y
    ---------
    | 0 | 1 |
    ---------
  x | 1 | 0 |

INSTALLATION

• With Go 1.17+ installed:

  > go install github.com/noah-friedman/kmap/bin/kmap@latest

• Without Go 1.17+ installed:

  See Releases for pre-compiled binaries.

USAGE

After running the kmap program the user is prompted for three inputs:

• The size of the k-map (a.k.a. the number of variables in the k-map)

  Valid: [2-4]

• The arguments of the k-map

  Valid: [0-2^size)

• The don't care conditions of the k-map

  Valid: [0-2^size)

NOTE: The arguments and don't care conditions must not overlap.

When inputting the arguments of the k-map the user may provide a series of valid numbers seperated by any characters as long as each separation contains the same characters. Otherwise, an error will occur.

Instead of inputting parameters directly, the user may provide arguments to the kmap program:

• -s or -size for the size parameter
• -a or -args for the arguments to the k-map
• -dc or -dont-care for the don't care conditions of the k-map

EXIT CODES

• 0: Everything went fine, the program executed successfully
• 1: Some kind of bug or error in the way I wrote the program.
• 2: Some kind of bug in a library called by the program (possibly due to a misunderstanding of the library on my part).
