Logic Gates: Physical circuits that implement Boolean operations. They are the fundamental building blocks of ALL digital computation.
AND Gate: Output is 1 ONLY when ALL inputs are 1. Like a series circuit — both switches must be ON.
OR Gate: Output is 1 when ANY input is 1. Like a parallel circuit — either switch being ON is enough.
NOT Gate: Inverts the input. 1 becomes 0, 0 becomes 1. The simplest gate — only 1 input.

AND Gate: Both inputs must be TRUE (1) for the output to be TRUE. In programming: if (A && B). In circuits: two switches in series — current only flows when both are closed.
