Definition df-an 386
Description: Define conjunction (logical 'and'). Definition of [Margaris] p. 49. When both the left and right operand are true, the result is true; when either is false, the result is false. For example, it is true that (2 = 2 ∧ 3 = 3). After we define the constant true (df-tru 1486) and the constant false (df-fal 1489), we will be able to prove these truth table values: ((⊤ ∧ ⊤) ↔ ⊤) (truantru 1506), ((⊤ ∧ ⊥) ↔ ⊥) (truanfal 1507), ((⊥ ∧ ⊤) ↔ ⊥) (falantru 1508), and ((⊥ ∧ ⊥) ↔ ⊥) (falanfal 1509).

Contrast with (df-or 385), (wi 4), (df-nan 1448), and (df-xor 1465) . (Contributed by NM, 5-Jan-1993.)
